Perfect Cookies ?

I have NOT made cookies from scratch, literally, in years.
Whenever I make them, they end up overcooked, or uneven, or weird-shaped.
I consider myself to be a decent cook,
but homemade cookies never seem to look and taste right!
BUT... the other day I saw this post on Kami's blog with some Special Secret Cookie Tips
and I was ... inspired.
So Peli and I got to work yesterday:
{Peli was so excited and proud to be such a great helper}
{I think this was his favorite part- pushing the dough out of our
Special Cookie Dough Spoon}
We followed every step Kami had shared...
and look what we ended up with:
I cannot tell you how stoked- and surprised- I was.
These cookies were perfectly-evenly-cooked-
not brown on the bottom and soft on top, like usual...
They tasted great and looked just as good!
Thanks to Kami (and her bro-in-law)
- and to Peli !!
Wish you could taste 'em!

I had to laugh, that's always what I've thought about my homemade cookies!! I can NEVER get 'em right no matter what recipe or how closely I try to follow it. They're always hard as rocks or blown up like little cakes. I gave up & my kids now think store bought dough is "making cookies".
