Default Cookie Competition

OK folks. Here's the thinking on how we might do this ...

Eligibility Requirements:

* must be a cookie .. anything you have to cut like cakes, pie, fudge, souffles, bake alaska etc. is not eligible

* must be able to eat it and hold it with your fingers ... with out it falling apart or making a god awful mess

* must have some form of flour and sugar in it (if not, it ain't a cookie, it's a fruit roll-up)

* May be either home made or store bought


Judging Criteria:

* Taste (75 pts)
* Appearance (20 pts)
* Unique, Yet Relevant Name (5 pts)

Each item rated on a 3 point scale:
1 = "Interesting But Not To My Taste" / Run of the Mill / WTF-Must Be An Inside Joke
2 = "Pls. Sir May I Have Another" / Very Nice Effort / Name Says It All
3 = "I Want The Recipe" / Ben-Get Your Camera / Funny-You Must Be A Marketeer

WINNER = highest weighted average score from all submitted entries.

PRIZE = Bottle of Irish Cream or Fine Red Wine (winners choice)

Other suggestions? Let me hear 'em.

Fair warning to all, I have found a recipe that will dominate the cookie competition. I am not going to reveal anything about my special cookies, however it will be worth the suspense. I will be the new Betty Crocker around here.... Wait, thats not cool... Well, my cookies will be good darn it! Baking a test run this afternoon.

Go for it, Jeff. I want to be on your "distribution" list. I have empty cookie tins that need filling.

Rick has been pushing me to stop all the baking and start brewing beer instead.

The oven is pre heating right now. I have spent the last hour measuring and mixing the myiad of ingredients that go into my award winning cookies. Baking is tough work.
