I told the Madwoman the science behind why melting the butter would work better for the crispier gingersnaps I prefer for the bats. (Science learned by you commentators and a few cooking blogs run by actual scientists.) However, as soon as the words "cooking blogs" left my mouth, she shut off her ears, or at least filtered what I was saying through her vehement and perpetual annoyance at cooking blogs.
"The ones I looked at are written by actual scientists!"
"COOKING. BLOGS."
So! I am making a batch of dough with my recipe, and she will make a batch of dough "fixing" my recipe, and then we'll see which works for what I want.
To be clear, she's in no way annoyed with me. She's just baffled and very cynical.
(Mind you, she's also amused that the Stroppy One and I follow cooking times on recipes, going so far as to set timers.)
Anyway, all of this to say: TWO BATCHES OF COOKIES, HECK YEAH.
