cookie baking

i'm glad i posted early this morning before work, as i didn't return home until after midnight. that makes for a long day, but it kept me true to my NaBloPoMo commitment. and we all know how much i like committing to fun-sounding words. :)

i'm experimenting with baking cookies on my baking stone. yes, it's 1:45 a.m. and i'm baking cookies. but why not? the first set came out a little under cooked, i think. but it's hard to tell. they were not done when the timer went off, so i gave them an extra two minutes. the centers still look soft ... but they've always set up once they come out of the oven. this set, however, didn't seem to set up the same way. perhaps because the stone retains the heat longer than the metal pan? they did set up enough to move them to a cooling rack, where perhaps the setting up process will complete itself. the second set is in the oven now, and i'm going to add a couple of minutes to see how they work.
