This is a live report from my kitchen. I've been trying to make Alfajores cookies for the second time. The first time they turned out to be really good, and now I'm interested in making them again for the holidays at Rob's parents. The first time I made them I accidentally put a bit too much butter, but they still tasted really good. This time I wanted to put as much butter as the recipe says to put, and well... Big Fiasco. The dough was too dry and started breaking.
I got really upset because it's hard work to make these cookies, and it needs a lot of eggs, butter, flour and corn flour. Luckily I still have enough of everything to make another batch, but the disappointment of making it all over again after standing in the kitchen for an hour and using a lot of ingredients is really big. Throwing so much stuff to the garbage after working on it so hard is a bitch.
So this is a live report. I will send an update later how it all worked out (if it ever will, I still have lots of work to do....)
Peace out.
