Build Thread - PB and Chief Cookies

[PerniciousDuke]

The Goal:

The Plan:

I'm in need of cookies and I want them in the shape of our favorite hero. The problem? I am not a fan of sugar cookies or molasses cookies which is what everyone makes when they want to make a cookie cutter cookie.

So, I've done some research and watched some tutorials from the top food builders. I've found an instructable that I'm going to try out:

Peanut Butter Cut Out Cookies {with a Simple Chocolate Ganache Frosting}

You don't have to give up peanut butter if you're baking cut out cookies. Peanut butter cut out cookies are soft and hold their shape perfectly when baked.

Hopefully I'll finally get to use my halo cutters that I got awhile back...

Good things take time TheBraus !

I should have some time tomorrow night. Despite everyone else staying home I'll likely be working full time all week. :/

Can't wait for the results.

In fact we've been really busy at work. I took a 3 hour nap when I got home.

Everyone wants rushes to get their jobs done, or stock up in fear of our manufacturer's stock running low. Gotta keep people making stuff.

Don't over work yourself , Stay Healthy. You got this

It wouldn't be a collection of build threads if there weren't some unfinished ones out there.

I'm hoping that work finally slows after tomorrow.

This is starting to look like one of my threads. You have a great idea and work on it, and then the second you tell the world your gonna do something, you sit on it for what feels like forever! XD

I'm hungry! So is the discord! And the forum! Feeeeed uuuus!

Before you get excited, there are no delicious cookies in this post. I'm sorry, but I'd rather you know now.

So! I gathered up my materials.
Everything looking good.


Now, I love cooking but I am very rusty with baking. I know with baking procedures are everything, so I follow the recipe to the T.
First, mix liquid ingredients.


Then the dry ingredients, but don't overmix!


Now I did make a mistake here. I thought it would be fun if cookies were green. This was not the time to add food coloring, but I did it anyway.


The real problem lies elsewhere... This batter was waaaaay too dry. I kept going anyway.



So yeah, super hard to cut, but I kept going.


They came out okay, but not good enough for me to want to make frosting. Maybe this crafting is not for me.

But I'll give it another try. I'm telling you guys work has been stressful. I think the batter needs more butter.

Stick in there, man. You've got this! Work is definitely harder now, during this pandemic.

Just think, when the Corona virus is finally over, all of us essential people will get free paid vacations for a month! All our food at restaurants will be free, and when we walk down the road people will point and look at us in awe, and tell their children and grandchildren about us! And the babes, man! They will flock to us in droves, and we'll have to beat them away with sticks, just to get breathing room!

Also the cookies look good. Hope the next time you're able to make a batch they turn out so good they soothe your soul.
