There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Brownie cookies - Testing


1 - Um, no. The result using only oat flour was terribly grainy and crumbly, not gooey and smooth at all. The flavor was just fine. I will try one more time with flour instead, and not call them 'brownie' cookies.

1 cup oat all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp + 1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder
6 Tbsps oil
2 Tbsps milk 
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup chocolate chips
  1. Combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. 
  2. Stir in the remaining ingredients to form a batter. If the batter is too dry, add oil 1 tsp at a time until you get a unform dough. Wrap and put in the refrigerator to rest for 1 hour and up to 72 hours.
  3. Roll into balls. 
  4. When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325 F and grease a cookie sheet. Bake 9 minutes – they should look underdone when you take them out. 
  5. Allow to sit for at least 10 minutes to let them firm up.
