Peanut Butter Cookie Disaster

Writing my last blog about wanting to open a bakery, inspired me to try and bake something. As i was watching the Steeler game with my family, I started to crave something sweet. I went into the pantry and started rummaging around my mother's pantry for something that would satisfy my craving, and low and behold i came across a package of peanut butter cookies. The directions seemed easy enough for me to manage, 1 egg, vegetable oil, and water; there's no way i could mess that up, easy enough (or so i thought). I even found hershey kisses to put in the middle of each one, they were going to be so delicious.
So i preheat the oven, grab a bowl, get the ingredients that i need, and start to make my cookies. I threw in the packaged cookies, the egg, and the water only to find that i had no oil. After searching for a good 15 minutes in the kitchen for the oil, i realized that my dad had used the entire bottle for the deep frier. So before he started cooking i ran downstairs and grabbed 3 tablespoons of ridiculously hot oil out of the deep fryer, (probably my first mistake). After i made my dough i got out my cookie sheets and put tablespoon sized balls of the dough, 2 inches apart, just like the directions said, and set my timer for 8 minutes. I waited around in the kitchen for the timer to go off determined not to burn my cookies, but after 8 minutes they still looked raw, so i called in for backup, and asked my mom to come check them.
After she closely examined my cookies she told me that they were still raw because your suppose to flatten peanut butter cookies before you bake them, who knew? Well apparently everyone at my house knew that you were suppose to flatten these cookies except me, but no one said anything while i was making them. So my mom tells me to give them another minute to bake, and that they were still salvageable. One minute later i took out all 3 of my trays, and they were completely raw in the middle, and pitch black on the bottom, I ruined 30 cookies!!! So needless to say my bakery will not be serving peanut butter cookies:( and even  when the recipe comes from a package i somehow mange to mess it up! But on the bright side, my sweet craving was satisfied by the 30 hershey kisses that i had unwrapped for the cookies and ate all by myself!
