Did you under cook them? They look greasy.

Not saying I wouldn't eat them. Cookie dough is delicious.

It's just the flash, I noticed that too in the image, but not irl. I dislike undercooked cookies and prefer ones with a bit of brown on the bottom.

I'm making peanut butter cookies right now and I made sugar cookies to give away to family and friends. The icing didn't come out as pretty on this batch, but they taste good.

What kind of icing is that?

Royal icing I made with 4 cups powdered sugar and 3 oz of egg whites.

I want to try making that but isn't it dangerous because of the uncooked eggs?

I haven't had any problem with it. It's such a small amount of egg white to sugar, and I'd wait until it dies to eat it. My suggestion is to use good quality, fresh, refrigerated eggs. Make sure no yoke gets in when getting your white and you should be dandy.

I used that recipe to make an "outline" icine, then added about a tablespoon of water to make a fill icing that's much more runny.

i'm not positive, but i think sugar works like salt where it "cures" the egg white, preserving it and preventing bacterial growth.

I just made meringues and I think I want to drip them in bittersweet chocolate. Has anyone tasted this before? Thoughts?

You could buy a carton on pasteurised egg whites

>not making based molasses cookies

They are so fucking good, like a soft and chewy gingersnap

Salmonella is on the outside of the egg, so wash them thoroughly.

If you want no risk, buy pasteurized eggs and wash them before you use them

Is that middle cookie a dick?

I need these in my mouth.

After mixing, chill the dough in the fridge. When placing them on the cookie sheet, place them a bit further apart.

I made some a few weeks ago and was out of ginger and molasses.
