I got a fairy good deal on these cookies, but its way past the best sell date, should I report them? 2 bag of the cookies only cost 97¢.

The date that I purchased was, 07-31-2017, and the best-selling date is, 06-23-2017.

Didn’t pay attention the date when I bought, already consumed one bag without any problem, next time I should be more aware about it.

Cookies made with cookie press

I ended up just the regular way to cut and make the cookies instead of using the cookie press. It wasn’t as easy as I thought to made fancy looking cookies. So I gave up.

And I meant to decorate or mix in with some raisins and nuts but I totally forgot. Those are for the fundraising bake sale, maybe it's good to make it simply.

But my sons said, those are not so attractive looking for sale purpose, and then I said maybe next time we can have 3 or 6 cookies in a bag and tie a nice ribbon. And again, my sons said, it probably won't help, unless, I make the cookies look fancy itself. Really!?

Another thing for sure that I’ll use the blender to do the mixing job, it's too tiring to use the handheld mixer.

Ingredients

2 cups butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar

4 1/2 cups all-purpose wheat flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

Currants or nuts, if desired

Steps

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Beat butter and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon. Stir in flour, salt and eggs.

Bake 5 to 8 minutes or until set but not brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. To decorate cookies after baking, use a drop of corn syrup to attach decorations to cookies.

Oreos

I made 2 batches at one time, and am surprised about how much coco powder that I needed for this recipe.

In this one time baking, I used all my leftover coco powder, flour and the butter is almost gone too.

When I trying to make the filling, I nearly give up, first I used a hand mixer. And I need to beat the brownish sugar and yellowish butter together until it's fluffy and white as snow. I made it!

1 1/2 c butter

2 c brown sugar

4 c wheat flour

cupcookies

Cup-cookies, yes it’s not a typo, I use the cupcake pans to bake the cookie, and the cookie dough that are store buy. To make sure that I can a perfect shape cookies for bake sale, but I should cut the dough into 2 next try, it seems too thick for a cookie.

bake sale

Those are for tomorrow's school bake sale, I use the ready to bake dough.
I have no choice, first I don't have time and energy to make my own from scratch also it's for bake sale therefore use store make is always safe, i mean for taste.
However, I do encourage you to make your own as possible, you get to control the ingredients, more healthy for sure.
