Thank you this is much more inclusive the one I found called for peanut butter and chips I added peanuts instead ended up using about 2 cups of chips for 1 pkg of noodles actually James made them while I made the itallian cookies they are sure tastey



wow think I will look on amazon

Penny, What Italian Cookies are you making? I watched GINA
on U tube and she made some of her Italian Cookies. One of them
was her version of Biscotti. I made them today....and I think I may have added too much flour. Her Italian Cookies are not exact flour measurements. I will try them again...and WATCH
the flour addition. Would like to hear about your Italian Cookies.

Looks like I'll probably be baking more chocolate chip cookies and snickerdoodles tomorrow. We're heading up to DH's dad's house on Sunday immediately after church (he lives about 2 hours away) and DH conveniently forgot to mention that we were supposed to bring some cookies since he loved them at Thanksgiving. DH already ate all of them except for the few set aside for Santa This will be how many batches of cookies that I've made this season? Usually, I love baking them but I'm about cookied out and we have an incredibly busy weekend ahead of us.

Hope everyone else is all together and prepared for your Christmas adventures!

Ok, folks we have a question.....

@Nifty-Chicken asked me this after re-building the index. How would you all feel about having your recipes added to the recipe section of byc as an article? There may be a way for him to do it systemically. If so, I and a team of other volunteers would review and update as appropriate. We would certainly reach out to you during the process. We have nearly a thousand recipes in this thread. BYC recipes has 517 posts. Not only does the article approach give the option of rating the recipe but it expands BYC recipes three fold.

I'd love your thoughts...

That is a very good idea!

Thanks guys!

The recipes section is one that hasn't gotten much attention since the conversion:
https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/category/recipes.14/

It's definitely due for some cleanup, organization, new recipes, more pics, etc. (stuff for a separate thread / discussion).

That said, I'm totally open / game for getting the best recipes from this thread into the recipes section of the learning center... if y'all think that might be a good idea.

One of the big issues / questions will be around copyright. It's very important to us to respect the original copyright holder of content.
