F|_|(|{ Cake

I’ve decided those are the 2 most important words regarding birthdays.  I know there are some of you out there who still wallow in the delusion that birthday cake is some decadent gift from god, but you people clearly haven’t had these cookies.  See the recipe below?  That’s what I’m talking about.  Alton Brown (the geeks’ cook) took the Nestle Tollhouse chocolate chip cookie recipe and modified it three times for three variations, including this one known as “chewy”.  Tessa took this and modified it slightly by adding pecans (on my request), and dark chocolate chunks instead of chips.  These things are heavenly.  But at 5 Weight Watcher’s PointsPlus points each, they are also evil.  For comparison, there is more enjoyment in each one of these cookies than can be found in an entire birthday cake.  And an entire birthday cake has far many more points with the enjoyment spread over many days.  I am a strong believer in moderation with food, so if you are going to eat something that’s technically bad for your body in fairly small amounts, it’s best best get the most out of every bite.  With that said, I reiterate, F|_|(|{ Cake.  Long live birthday cookies.
