And the inaugural dish for my new kitchen is...
...Ultimate Oatmeal Cookies, from the May/June 2005 issue of Cook's Illustrated. I needed something quick to bring for dessert at a chorus gathering and this recipe fit the bill. This was my first baking project in the new kitchen, and it was great. An oven large enough to bake the entire batch of cookies at once, with a glass door to check their progress and all kinds of fancy digital readouts. I used an ice cream scoop to measure out the cookie dough and these came out as some of the most uniform-looking desserts I've put together. For this recipe, "Ultimate" means chocolate chunks, raisins, and walnuts. Mine was the only dessert at the party to completely run out, so... success.
What should I try in the new kitchen next?
