The results are in on the test cookies from yesterday. I brought the entire batch which was approximately a little over two pounds of chocolate, caramel and pecan cookies to work. I set them out and let whoever wanted to try them to have at it.
They were pretty much gone before I got back from lunch. The tins were empty and I retrieved them from the place I had put them when they were full.
I had quite a few positive responses. I tried to explain they really didn't come out the way I had imagined them. I tried to explain I was hoping the caramel would have stayed a creamier consistency instead of the more brittle-like texture.
I was told it was actually better the way they turned out. It was explained to me that the cookie would have been too sweet if the caramel had stayed creamier. I was told it was a perfect balance of caramel flavor with the pecans and chocolate. I was told they were very good. I was told anytime I wanted to experiment there would be plenty that would be happy to taste them for me.
Then I was told, well, maybe I needed to work on them again. Maybe I needed to try some others and bring them in for tasting. Yes, maybe I needed to have more to sample.
I was even told by someone that since I liked to experiment, he would be more than happy to move into my spare bedroom so he would be available to taste everything I fixed.
Hmm...right. I told him not to hurry to pack up his stuff. I'd get back to him later on that one.
Boy, some people will do anything for cookies.
TT

The cookies sound delicious! I would also like to volunteer to sample/test your cookies. The batch of cookies we have now are almost gone. :-)
