> [@faithfool](#): > > This will be my last post to this thread. And only say that it was a polite _request_, in private. What was a polite request? Your starting this chat in the first place? I don’t think so. Whether you admit it or not, you were challenging me by getting this chat going and when you saw that I **wasn’t** going to walk away from you, you did what anyone in your position would do and that is **try** to back down. Well here is what you obviously did not know before starting this chat, backing down won’t be an option when dealing with those who accept the challenge that you decide to throw at them. God bless you always!!! Holly P.S. Oh and this really not being your last message in this chat does not surprise me either. ---

The problem is, delta, she made those posts because she knew faithfool was irked by it. She wasn’t squirming, she was trolling. Wanna see a troll squirm? Let the thread run its natural course without any posts from the only person the troll really wants trollcakes from…the OP who pitted her. Every PM mention and cookie thread shout out was troll kibble sweeter than any cookie recipe we could conjure. ---

At first that you were bumming me out like, big time. But then I realized something. If that’s true, then it’s obviously not human. It’s a spambot and has to be banned. Win-win! 😃 ---

This is not cookies, but a favorite family candy recipe. It’s been in the family for at least four generations. **Boston Cream** 3 cups sugar(600 g) 1 cup white syrup(235 ml) 1 cup heavy cream(235 ml) 1 cup chopped black walnuts 1 teaspoon vanilla(5 ml) In a heavy pan boil sugar, srup, and cream to for a soft ball in cold water. Take from fire: beat lond and hard until mixture is an off white in color and almost set. Stir in nuts and vanilla and spread in buttered pan. Allow to cool completely and cut into small squares. This is very sweet, so don’t make the pieces too big. You can use other nuts, but we have never used anything but black walnuts. If you have a sturdy mixer with a paddle that can be used to beat the candy. Grandma used to tell me that before electricity the women would snag the guy with the sturdiest arm to do the tiresome chore of beating the candy. ---

> [@Tequila\_Party](#): > > Oh, and I freaking love cookies. The chewier the better. �� For chewier cookies, you generally want to use more brown sugar to white sugar, and higher-gluten bread flour. I usually just use regular AP flour for cookies, but I use a lot more brown sugar in place of white sugar when I want them to be chewy. ---

I usually just use regular AP flour for cookies, but I use a lot more brown sugar in place of white sugar when I want them to be chewy. This link is to an episode of _Good Eats_, with Alton Brown. It’s about making chocolate chip cookies, and how different kinds of fats, or sugars, or leavening, changes cookies. I love Alton Brown, and this one is my favorite, plus you really learn stuff. https://www.youtube.com/embed/5MYuXRaW0B0?feature=oembed&wmode=opaque ---
