I love to bake. I enjoy cooking, but not like I enjoy baking. I like the end product better. I love me a good steak and potatoes, but nothing finishes a meal like something sweet. I love cookies, pie, and CHOCOLATE! Hench the reason I get up at 4:30 in the morning to go to the gym. When I cook, I pretend to not notice all the sugar, butter and oil I add. I know where the calories hide, but I don’t try and cut them out. I don’t believe in substituting things like apple sauce or zucchini for the ingredients that make cookies delish.I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter hooked me up with a Breakfast After Dark kit and some I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. I usually get the tub I Can’t Believe It’s Not Better and use it on toast, pancakes, or to make grilled cheese. I wanted to try the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter sticks. I wanted to give them a try in some cookies. I found the recipe on the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter website.
I added oatmeal and raisins and my cookies were to die for, if I do say so myself. (If you add oatmeal and raisins, then they don’t count and cookies, they count as a bowl of oatmeal) I have been converted from the cheepy brand of margarine for baking to the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter sticks.I haven’t ever been a big “butter” fan. Not that I am against it at all, it is just more expensive than margarine But the flavor of I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter is so rich and delicious I don’t know that I would switch to butter. It tastes amazing on English muffins! I love to coat them as soon as you pull them out of the toaster and let the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter melt into every nook and cranny.
