Final grade:

As a copycat:
Flavor: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2
Texture: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2

I may still try this recipe one more time, using a different brand of butter, but for now let’s move on to the next recipe!

Remember that the events of Pacific Rim take place in 2025 👀

Notable about this recipe: high butter content, giving us that tender crumb. Also, absolutely no almond extract (most copycats use it!), preferring vanilla instead.
Tomorrow I may try adding a tiny bit of almond to round out the flavor before baking the remaining dough.
Here’s hoping, will update!

The second recipe review, this time from Sugar Geek Show.

As a cookie:
Flavor: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Texture: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, cross between cake and shortbread

As a copycat:
Flavor: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, the almond is just a little much
Texture: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2, it’s so close. I’d almost be ready to call it with these!

Singing Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes for karaoke night at my old company’s pikkujoulu (pre-Christmas party).
I hope the bartenders of this place get hazard pay 🥲

Some truly excellent covers and titles found at the book fair today. Arctic Hysteria will be the name of my new band and our first album will be called Strange Northern Emotions. Hmu if you can play the kantele or the theremin.

Not that I haven’t already been listening to Christmas music for weeks (fuck thanksgiving), but now that it’s officially December 1st, today I:
Baked cranberry nut bread
Got my winter door wreath out
Went to a book fair
Went to an art and design fair
Bought an advent calendar

First up: the recipe from Wholefully, arguably the safest one with 1.4k ratings.

As a cookie:
Flavor: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Texture: a cross between biscuit and cookie, ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

As a copycat:
Flavor: ⭐️⭐️⭐️, oddly not sweet enough
Texture: ⭐️⭐️1/2, too dry to match LH
But, caveat below!

Last year I made a Lofthouse copycat cookie recipe that came genuinely close to replicating them. Like an idiot, I didn’t save the recipe. So my journey to achieve those cookies begins all over again, I’ll grade the recipes I try until I find The One (or close enough)
