COOKIES!

where've i been?
man, i've been busy being busy and doing busy things.
also, i made some cookies.
wanna see?
alright:

CRUNCHY OATY BOYZ!!
so much work at AMPERSAND TATTOO means that i need
a little somethin' nice about midday to boost up those enthusiasm levels
from the saggy lag of laboring across black line tattoos,
and back up to the full boomfire fun of a DÜDI BOI SUMMER
revved at the redline to eleven.
cookies always do the job.
and my cookies are always kind of similar.
i've made all the stuff, and for years, all i wanted to do was make all the stuff.
but now,
i'm only making what i love, and i'm barely even making that.
so if i gotta give myself a treat, it's gotta be some rockish blockish jauns.
they're the best, and i have the skills down pat.
here's what happened with these knobbly nubs:

OATBLOXXX!
-
preheat the oven to 375℉
-
in a medium sized mixing bowl, cream together:
1 stick vegan butter;
1/2 tsp salt;
2 tsp vanilla;
1 cup demerara sugar;
1/2 cup dark brown sugar.
when that's combined, stir in:
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, and mix well.
-in your food processor, combine:
2 cups whole rolled old fashioned oats;
1/4 cup unsweetened flake coconut.
pulse into a coarse flour, and add to your bowl of sugarmush.
add a cup of king arthur flour;
1 tsp each baking powpow and soda;
1/2 bag vegan minichips.
mix completely, and form up some two inch balls arranged evenly on baking trays.
12 minutes of heat in the box,
and maybe a little pattty-pat on the tops to flatten 'em a hair more
than the oatmeal might've allowed for otherwise.....
voilà.
that's it.
that's all there is to it.
now you can be the busiest bro in the bunch,
and still have a little sugarbomb lunch in between tattoos,
or whatever it is you do.

yeah.
cookies.
beige blops of goodness.
i need more goodness and i think this is a good start;
never quiet, never soft.....
