We started our childbirth classes last week.
As part of the deal, each couple is supposed to sign up to bring a snack.
Each week there should be a "healthy" snack and a "fun" snack.
Me being me, I signed up for a "fun" snack.
I was torn between a proven winner, oatmeal-pecan shortbread, and a new recipe.
Because I like to try new things, the unknown won out.
The choice? Another shortbread.
And despite the slight unexpected extra crunch from the medium-grind cornmeal, this was quite successful. The flavor was perfect. The only change I will make next time is to use a finer cornmeal. Or maybe even try a corn flour.
Anyway, there was not much of it left by the end of the snack break. And when the teacher/nurse asked the class if there were any questions, one expectant dad asked "Can I get the recipe for those cookies?"
I call that a success.
