Recipe for cookies so burnt they stick to your non-stick baking stone


Preheat oven to 375.

Mix 2.25 c. flour, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp salt in small bowl.

Beat 2 sticks butter, 3/4 c. sugar, 3/4 c. brown sugar so hard that you have to dampen it with water and shave some off, 1 tsp. vanilla extract.

Add 2 eggs, one at a time, disregarding the strange things wet brown sugar does to the mixture.

Stir in flour and stuff.

Stir in 2 c. chocolate chips, plus a few butterscotch chips since you've eaten enough of the chocolate ones that you don't quite have 2 cups.

Drop rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet (if you dare).

Leave in oven for 25-30 minutes or until they smell less like chocolate (and butterscotch) chip cookies and more like a chemistry lab.

Let stand for five minutes before trying to chip them off the baking stone and giving up.
