It is sad but I'm not out, we're down but not out. If anyone has any ideas of where I could "sell" cookies to raise money, please let me know.

Sorry I haven't posted. We've been busy doing updates to the house. THe cookies sale didn't go. The sale was not approved for the football game. I need to rethink how I can sell these for donation. I'll be getting a picture up tomorrow, promise.

The pink cookies are great. I'll post a picture later.

I'm so happy. I got the cookies to work. I'll post a picture later. I used 1 cup of butter crisco instead of butter and they are beautiful. Tho my daughter's friend was here and she said it was her touch (she was here the first time I baked these).

DD is dear daughter or darling daughter. LPBeier, thanks for the idea of the ribbon cookie cutters.

Thank you all. I will be sure to use shortening and not butter. My DD and her best friend are going to check and see if they can make cookies and sell them at the football game and donate the money. I hope they are able to do this.

If I add wilton's pink coloring to a sugar cookie recipe will this mess up the recipe? My DD wants to make pink cookies for breast cancer awareness.

I think my oven is the issue. I baked sugar cookies tonight (iced with bobcat paws) for the high school football game (13 yr old son plays in the marching band) and when I set the oven to the correct degree by the thermometer, the cookies turned out perfect!! I'm going to cook these cookies...

I baked these and they were cake-like. They do have a good taste tho. I think all the moisture in the canned pumpkin is the reason why they are cake-like. I wonder if I cut the canned pumpkin to 1/2 cup instead of 1 cup would make them less cake-like?

Thank you wyogal for all you help.

I'm going to try this one CHOCOLATE CHIP PUMPKIN COOKIES

I think he has figured out this is hard for me and he's going to love having all his favorite foods. The ones that I found also were cake-like cookies too and I'd prefer a cookie not cake-like. I may try and do some experimenting tho I'm not very good at it. I'll let you know what happens.

your pumpkin chocolate chip cookies? I've never had any or made them but one of my sons loves pumpkin pie and chocolate chips cookies so I though I'd make them for him. He turned 18 last month and I'm having a hard time with that and am "babying him" before he grows up too much and leaves...

You can never go againt your inner cookie monster. :lol:

I got sick last week and have not re-made the cookies again. apple*tart, did you get to your science project? How did it turn out?

Oven set at 350 degrees, oven temp = 350 degrees Oven set at 375 degrees, oven temp = 400 degrees Oven set between 350 and 375, oven temp = 400 degrees oven is an issue.

I am checking the overn temp right now. Will let you know what happens.

I'm checking my over today. The only other thing I can figure out is maybe I'm over mixing the batter some how. I would love someone else to make this recipe.

I followed the recipe so I used both butter and shortening.

Yes new ingredients

Nope. I buy large eggs. I made the dough, cooked 1 set (8 cookies) right away, they went flat. Chilled the dough, cooked 1 set, went flat. Chilled dough, cooked 1 set at 350 degrees, went flat.

Maybe it was beginner's luck because we were leaving the next day for South Beach, Miami...LOL I did chill the dough and baked them again and they were still flat....ugh Today I went to the store and bought all fresh ingredients (except flour, brown sugar, regular sugar, and eggs)...

Thank you for this information. I will print this out and keep it for future use. I decided that tomorrow I'm going to go buy fresh and name brand ingredients and rebake the cookies. I'm determined to get these cookies to bake the way they did the first time because they were the best cookies.

I'm not sure. I buy name brand and non-name brand items. The first time I baked the cookies, I was not baking a lot. It's quite possible that I used Land O lakes butter and the other times I've had non-name brand butter. I did put the batter into the fridge and baked one batch (8 cookies)...
