I know what you’re thinking… recipes that are start with “the world’s best?” Really? Well, typically I take them out of the title, but these cookies deserved for those three little words to stay. I think they’re that good.
I mean, those are some good looking cookies! That crinkle on top from my cookie scoop stayed in place and spread out just the right amount. They held their shape beautifully, which is all I ask of a cookie. The consistency is extremely soft. So soft, that if you tried to pick it up immediately after baking, they’d fall apart. These cookies need time to set. Make sure you let them cool ON the cookie sheet. Resist the urge to move them around!
But can we talk about the beauty all of these cookies are on?
It’s from Mad Hatter’s Platters! How cute is their name? I’ve never had anything quite this nice to display my desserts. When I first received it in the mail, I was impressed with the packaging and how heavy duty these plates were. I was expecting something a little flimsier (only because I’ve never owned a tired platter before), but I’m glad I was wrong. This is something that I would expect to last me for years through wear and tear.
They have unique 2 tiered and 3 tiered platters for you to choose from. I’m currently obsessed with this one and just might have to buy it after I move. These would also make great housewarming or hostess gifts. It was shipped disassembled, but it took me no more than two minutes to put it together. All you need are your hands! No extra tools required.
The sky is the limit with these platters. They’re great for entertaining, everyday use or even as a centerpiece. Don’t just think about using it in the kitchen… How about in the bathroom for holding soaps or hair ties? Or the bedroom for holding miscellaneous jewelry? You can check Mad Hatter’s Platters on their site and Facebook page for more great ideas.
Since all the pieces come apart, you can change the look of our platter with different sized plates and bowls in the “add-a-plate” section on their site.
Guess what?! Mad Hatter’s Platters is giving away a 2 tiered platter to one lucky reader! Aren’t they the best!?
