Where we used to live, my cookies always turned out fine, but here they were a disaster. After reading around and trying to figure out the problem, I discovered this oven is smaller than my last one. I don't remember where I read it, but there is supposed to be several inches of space between the cookie sheet and the oven walls so the heat can circulate evenly. The only cookie sheet that works for me is one that only holds a dozen at a time....so it makes it all a much longer process, but they turn out better. Oh, and the darker and non-stick cookie sheets don't work for me, either (I should have mentioned that on Shannon's "what doesn't work for me Wednesday"!) Only the shiny pans without the nonstick coating work for me.<BR/><BR/>I am getting an urge to bake cookies....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-37775591888801091302008-05-13T09:31:00.000-06:002008-05-13T09:31:00.000-06:00Well, look at you, Susanne.

One hint, though. I discovered that the cookies tend to dry out quicker if you've added extra flour. My solution to that is to just stick a slice of apple in the cookie jar. That keeps them moist.<BR/><BR/>I love your new cookie jar. What a thoughtful gift that was. Not that he had an ulterior motive, or anything.
