Cookies: Idiot-proof

These cookies have been one of my go-to recipes of the past few weeks. My boyfriend usually meets with friends on a Sunday night and I like to send him with treats: these have proved really popular. 'Famous Amos' brand cookies were something he used to get at school so I found this clone recipe, which turned out to be fantastic.
 It's also idiot-proof as it's taken all of the alterations I've thrown at it and still turned out great cookies - the picture above shows 1/6th of the flour replaced with cocoa and the hazelnuts replaced by Smarties.

Meanwhile, this is what our Jubilee weekend looked like:
Wet and miserable, but then you wouldn't expect anything less from Britain, really.

Cookies of the Elder Gods, COOKIES OF THE DAMNED!!!

My boyfriend wanted some baked treats to take round to a geeky night in with some friends. This gave me an excuse to use my skull-and-crossbones cookie cutter and to cut some mini-Cthulhus by hand.
 This was a very happy baking session :)
All the best.
