I just tried your last Guerilla Cookie Re...Hi Karen<br />I just tried your last Guerilla Cookie Recipe "78". I wanted to see exactly what you were making, but something was way wrong with the bulgur wheat. It was like uncooked rice, if just a bit smaller grains. Letting the recipe rest after mixing for 2 hours wasn't enough to soften that stuff. I am not sure that 24 hours would have done much to soften the bulgur, but maybe boiling it might. <br />I am going to have to try my last recipe again now to see where it may be off.<br />I am tempted to go to the Alumni thing to see what they come up with. My fear would be that none of them will be old enough to have actually tasted the originals. Can't wait to hear about that though.<br />JohnJohn Gestnerhttp://www.gestner.net/cookies1.htmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470936969591007131.post-13449946714622528492012-03-26T15:19:18.026-05:002012-03-26T15:19:18.026-05:00in any case please taste them for us and share you...in any case please taste them for us and share your impressions!

That recipe is gone, too, unless MacDowell still has a copy because 'a disgruntled employee absconded with it.' (Reminder: 'Disgruntled' is often in the eye of the beholder.) <br /><br />Moe's reference to 'a reliable ingredients list,' then is ambiguous whether it's a reliable list for the guerrilla cookie or for the MacDowell cookie.Karen M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07334893805256565200noreply@blogger.com
