Not a recipe for disaster.

    It was almost time for the hungry one to arrive home, so I made cookies, Snickerdoodles to be precise.  Easy enough, only one egg and one stick of butter so I had all the ingredients on hand.  After the ten minute baking time, I took the first batch out of the oven. Of course, I sampled one while it was still warm.  Quite delicious it was, and a little crispier than usual.  I attributed that to lack of moisture from the size of the egg, which the carton called Large, but the eggs inside are pretty darn small, not what would have been considered large in days gone by.
    So, never my practice to stop at one cookie, I decided to have another, with a hot drink.  When I opened the microwave to place the cup, there inside was the called-for stick of butter, melted and ready.   So I now have the perfect recipe for, not Low-Fat, but  No-Fat Cookies.
