Cookie Recipe?

Question

Okay, so, I was lazy this year and didn't get my mom a V-day gift. So tomorrow morning, I am getting up really early and baking for her. So, my idea is to make a pizza cookie (you know, one giant cookie in the shape of a pizza) The problem is, I don't know what to do for it. To make a pizza cookie, do you just have to get your baking pan and spread it out in the shape of a big round circle or is it not that simple? I'm assuming also that you just use a regular cookie recipe rather than having some special recipe. Okay, so I would like a recipe for peanut butter cookies. I don't have peanut butter chips so I can't use one of those recipes. We also don't have any chocolate chips so any good recipes for cookies? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

If the mix can fit the baking pan, I don't see why not - although if it can't, then you won't get the perfect round shape. Also, by stretching it out like that, the cookie might be a bit thin. Anyway try this recipe, and good luck! =o)

3. Roll into 1 inch balls and put on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern. Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes or until cookies begin to brown. Do not over-bake.

My favorite place to get recipes is allrecipes.com they have an awesome search engine where you can enter the ingredients you have on hand that you want to use, and then enter the ingredients you don't want to use like chocolate chips and it will search the site for those type of recipes. I love this site because people who tried the recipes leave feed back and comments they also rate the recipe with a star system. I never use any recipes that less than 50 people have tried and rated and it has to be 5 stars or I won't try it. You can use aluminum foil to make the heart shape make sure it is really tick with several layers of foil shape it like a heart and put your cookie dough in the center of it and spread it out. Then it works like a dam and keeps your dough in the heart. Happy baking!! P.S. I found a heart shaped pan at Walmart last year you could call around to department stores near you, since it's close to Valentines day you may find one.
