Fail: Hedgehog Shortbread Cookies with Chocolate + Walnut

Posted under Fail

Name: Joe

Original Inspiration: http://pinterest.com/pin/38702878019301186/

What I Did: I didn’t have enough flour so in a rush, I visually adjusted the butter content. FAIL. Too much butter, not enough flour, yields THIS! :D

My Result:

Next Time I Will: Measure when adjustments need to be made!

    I just don’t understand how many of these are a “Pinterest fail” – looks like people don;t know how to follow directions! How does Pinterest earn the blame for that?

      I agree with the above comment. Baking is a science and an art. YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!

        Thanks for sharing. Jeeze lighten up people it’s funny! Have you honestly never ever followed a recipe perfectly and it didn’t turn out? Does anyone ‘triple test recipes’ like they do for cook books. That’s why they turn out Emily and Vicky (no need to shout)
        Thanks for sharing – I laughed so hard at these ‘failures’ it brought tears to my eyes. At least you tried. Good luck !!

          yea, no need to get upset. The submitter acknowledges that they were the reason it failed. Just have fun!
