Stewart's absence is a much-lamented fact at the movie apartment. Much of what we shoot is a documentary of our real lives in the space, but it seems wrong to record the cookie-making process without his contribution. The cookies are good though. On camera yesterday, I made the original recipe (the one of the bag of Tollhouse semisweet chocolate chips) side by side with their latest incarnation:

Original (Latest)
Unsalted Butter (Unsalted Butter)
Brown Sugar (White Cane Sugar + Molasses)
Egg (Applesauce)
Vanilla (Vanilla)
All-Purpose Flour (All-Purpose Flour + Oats)
Baking Powder
Salt
Semisweet Chocolate Chips (Chunked 72% Dark Chocolate + Coconut Flakes + Walnuts)

I was surprised how bland the half batch of originals tasted -- experimentation continues to be fruitful.
