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

Cake Crumb Cookies - Untested

400g leftover cake
100g butter
200g sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
200g flour
50g choc chips
2-3 tbsp milk
  1. Cake crumb cookies: preheat the oven to 180 C (160 C fan) and line two flat oven trays with baking paper. Put the leftover cake into a food processor and blitz to fine crumbs.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Once light and fluffy, beat in the egg, vanilla, salt and baking soda, then fold in the cake crumbs, flour and chocolate chips. Add a few tablespoons of milk, if needed, to bring the dough together.
  3. Scoop 2 tbsp dough at a time and place, well spaced, on your lined baking trays. Bake for 10-12 minutes until spread out and golden brown. Leave to cool on the trays for a few minutes then move on to a wire rack to cool completely.
