Organic and Chic / Sarah Magid's version:
(Sorry about the poor representation--it's a picture of a picture.)
our version:
Just wait. It gets even better!
...even though it was touch and go for a while at the beginning. The cookie batter was super thick, causing my brand new KitchenAid some major agita. I turned it off and finished the rest by hand, split the mass into two separate piles, sandwiched that mass between two sheets of parchment paper and then tried my best to roll them into 1/8 inch thick sheets with help from a nice bottle of cab sauv.
Matt saw me struggling, drank some of the wine, and hopped in for support.
The cookies were delicious as straight sandwich cookies, but since this was an attempt with a cause beyond our own food wants, we decided to kick it up a notch by dipping them in chocolate and painting the dipped portion of the cookies in gold dust. With that said, I give you this tribute to chocolate and gold dust.
Wait. Wha? Has that cookie been dipped in gold? I'll take two... for charity (cash4gold charity?).
Thanks to everyone who organized the bake sale. I'd say it was a total success--even though you couldn't tell by the look on our friend Neal's face! Neal, what gives? You didn't get any of our magic, golden cookies?
