Compost Cookies

compost-cookies
i have been intrigued by these cookies since i first heard of them.
the brilliant minds at momofuku milk bar have come up with some fantastic ideas… cereal milk shakes, crack pie, and compost cookies. i have never eaten any of their originals, and never will due to gluten and dairy, but that doesn’t mean i’ll turn down the challenge of making them for myself!
if you’re persnickety about your food, then before you read the ingredient list of these cookies and turn up your noses just listen for a minute. in my opinion, some of the very best flavor combinations are salty and sweet ones… popcorn and m&ms. peanut butter and chocolate. candy corn and peanuts. (have you tried that one? thanks to my mom’s dear cousin elsie for that discovery… tastes like a payday candy bar…)
these cookies are serious yum. the potato chips turn into a delightful chewy bite and the pretzels add an occasional salty crunch. the rest is a heavenly, chewy chocolate/butterscotch mouthful. they are so worth it…
