So clearly I am stalking your blog at work again if I have stumbled across this little gem from 2010, but now I have to make these. Have to. The way you feel about ice cream/gelato/sorbet is the way I feel about cookies/cookies/cookies. I got a mortar & pestle for Christmas and hadn’t use it yet — I am so glad I have an excuse to bust it out of the box since I just haaaaad to have it.

Scuse me while I go add these cookies to my to do list. To eat list. Whatever, both lists.

I once heard that if you aren’t baking, you can get away the the imitation vanilla. But if the recipe is a baked one you should use real because the imitation stuff loses it’s flavor when heated above a certain temp…not sure if that’s true, but if so, good call to use the fake stuff for oatmeal!

(1) what???
(2) good idea! I never thought to look online.
(3) yes, I think they’d be good with orange zest…but if you don’t use anise they are going to be a totally different cookie, soo…..
(4) still have never tried chia seeds.
(5) I want pretty dresses.
(6) of course

haha. I never even knew imitation existed until I moved out of my parent’s house. My mom ALWAYS had the real stuff. She buys it at Costco in the giant bottle.

They ARE good. I’m glad I’m not the only one who is too cheap to buy the real stuff!

I was surprised how cheap the mortar & pestle was…I think we paid like $10 -$15?

Yea, I thought the sesame seed topping made them so cute!

Those look amazing!!

I usually use the real stuff, but for my oatmeal, etc, everyday I use the fake stuff. We were going through the real stuff like socks and it was so expensive!!
