I’m super happy with how these cookies turned out because this time, I didn’t overbake them! After baking for a while, I’ve finally learned that it’s okay for cookies to be a little undercooked when you take them out, they’ll continue to bake slightly as they cool. Another successful recipe from The Unlikely Baker! Like most of her recipes, the main ube flavor comes from a combination of ube jam and extract. At this point, I feel like you can turn almost any dessert into an ube dessert with those two ingredients. I’m not sure what ube dessert I’ll make next. Maybe ice cream? We’ll see in the future. I had been on a streak of making protein desserts lately, but this time, I wanted to bake something for my coworkers. It started as a joke, one coworker asked me to bake for him, and another immediately said, “If you’re baking for him, you have to bring me something too!” So, I decided to bake for everyone. All of my coworkers who tried the cookies really liked them, which made me so happy. I think the recipe made about 25 cookies total, and it was super easy to follow. As soon as I took them out of the oven, I pressed a few white chocolate chips on top. They stayed bright white and made the cookies look so pretty! This recipe is definitely a 5 out of 5 cactuses. It was easy, fun, and absolutely delicious. This is the kind of bake that makes you want to share it with everyone.
