brown butter bourbon oatmeal raisin cookies

there was a time when I couldn’t get behind the hype of oatmeal raisin, I was a real hater on this type of cookie


when someone requested it from me, I thought “damn”


and when I tell you that the outcome compared to expectation was beyond blown out of the water, it was nuked into orbit


chewy, soft, rich, with raisins soaked in Makers Mark, the richness of the brown butter, it was perfect.


and for a moment, I felt like Danny Devito in the season 13 finale of it’s always sunny


“oh my god, I get it”
