Baking in the snow

January, 2010

Yesterday, I woke up to a beautiful snowy morning in NYC. Clutching my warm coffee whilst looking out at the beautiful powder falling effortlessly to the ground I suddenly craved something sweet and comforting. Something that would fill my home with its aroma.

I raided my pantry and within seconds I knew exactly what I was going to make. By noon most of the snow had already melted away, as it usually does in NYC, but I was biting into these heavenly Oat, cranberry and walnut cookies relishing in the fact that they will last a least a little longer than the snow.

Try them, they are super easy to make and release all kinds of crazy flavors in your mouth but, be aware these heavenly morsels are highly addictive.

My recipe also suggests other flavor combinations if you don’t have these exact ingredients in your pantry or just feel like something different.

What are some of your favorite cookie moments or cookie combinations?

For me the best thing about baking cookies (other than the smell) is biting into them while they are still warm and gooey. As much as I love them the next day when they are crispy and chewy, nothing comes close to that comforting feeling. I like to semi-recreate that feeling by putting chocolate chip cookies in the microwave for 5-10 seconds. Mmmmh Bliss!
