I scored a treasure trove down the Used Record Store yesterday. 5 CDs of Kermit
Schafer Bloopers and Out-takes. Like the announcer who should have said "Now,
here's Betty O'Neil with the NEWS!" But, instead it came out "Now, here's Betty
O'Newel with the KNEES!"

Those make wonderfully unexpected bits for between the individual tracks of a
CD. And save me a lot of searching through back episodes of Allen's Alley or
Richard Diamond for appropriate to the music sound bites.  Bv)=

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Blooper Friday! Sugar Cookie Bar Semi-Fail
 Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Desserts
      Yield: 12 servings

      1 c  Unsalted butter; room temp
      2 c  Sugar
      4 lg Eggs
      1 tb Vanilla
      5 c  Flour
      1 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Baking soda
      1 c  M&M candies

  The thing about sugar cookie bars is that they are
  impossible to fail. We ran out of time, melted a plastic
  container, used the wrong pan, and didn't fully cook them
  and they were STILL delicious. So unlike other Blooper
  Fridays, we are actually going to show you this recipe.

  We first saw the cookie bars at Recipe Girl, complete with
  beautiful, colorful pictures and knew we had to make them.
  She adapted the recipe from The Repressed Pastry Chef, to
  make her own version (<-- that's where you can find the full
  recipe and see what these are supposed to look like). We
  adapted it a little from hers.

  Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

  Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each. Add
  vanilla.

  In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking soda.
  Add to wet ingredients.

  Add M&Ms, and mix until ingredients look like delicious
  cookie dough.

  Put dough on a jelly roll 13" x 18" baking sheet.

  Here is the first step we did incorrectly (FAIL! #1).
  Apparently, you are supposed to put the dough on a jelly
  roll baking pan, NOT a 9x13 cake pan. I thought 13x18 was a
  typo in the original recipe, but no, you want these to be
  thin.

  Bake at 375øF/190øC for 10-15 minutes. The dough will be
  light golden, and a toothpick in the middle will come clean.

  If you bake these in a 13x9 pan, they take substantially
  longer and still may not be fully baked.

  Allow to cool completely before icing.

  We cut them up because we wanted them to cool faster. As we
  saw they were not fully cooked. (FAIL! #2)

  After it took over 30 minutes to bake these extra thick
  bars, we decided to just go with a jar of icing (no homemade
  icing = FAIL! #3).

  We happened to have 1/2 of one left in the fridge. So, we
  thought it would warm up a little quicker if we put the jar
  above the oven. Oh, it definitely warmed up!

  Luckily, the melted plastic did not actually get in the
  icing so we were able to use it. At this point, we were
  already running late for a party, so we are glad it worked
  out.

  However, they weren't exactly the prettiest sugar cookie
  bars. 

  They were goopy, melty, and messy - but they were still
  delicious. We will definitely be making them again,
  hopefully without all the drama and mess.
