I found this recipe for cookies/biscuits and it says that I will get 100 cookies out of this recipe. I need 100 you see.....

Well.... I only got 30 cookies out of this famous chef's recipe! They would have been as big as smarties if I was to get 100.... I promise!

This is not the first time it happened... :duh:

I will not install a webcam to prove that it can be done :wall:


Seriously though Blom, name and shame - that's what this forum is about. Food matters!
If a recipe doesn't work and you've spent the time and money getting a third of the yield then when someone does a google search on recipes by this person it might come up that it doesn't work and needs tweaking.

Copy the message over to the publisher as well - it could have been a typo?

As cooks go, recipes tend to be used as guidelines, though strictly speaking they should work if followed to the letter.
