Butterscotch Crinkles

Easily on my list of favorite cookie recipes of all time! Baked just right, they’re immensely chewy all the way through. A little under-baked, and there sort of moltenly gooey in the center. A little overbaked, they become thin and crisp the potato chips of the cookie world. Truly, any way you bake ‘em- they’re 🤌

The second in my series on baking tools sold on TV. The Bake a Round pan aims to make shaping easier, and produces a comically round loaf of bread. Watch me (and my whole crew) crack up over the results in this giggle-worthy episode!
