So for those of you that don't know, the Okanagan gets HOT in the summer. Like 37 degrees in the shade hot. So one day last year, shortly after we moved into the house we rent now, as Ben and I were coming back from our morning walk, I noticed this funny mark on the sidewalk. It looked a lot like the remnants of a fried egg that someone cooked on the sidewalk but it stuck (I guess they forgot to use Pam). So it got me thinking, the car gets really really hot in the sun, like an oven. I wonder if you could bake cookies in there?
Well . . .


TA-DA!
Were they actually cooked? Yep. Were they crispy and yummy? Well . . . not so much. They were more dry on the outside and done on the inside, but we DID cook them in the car. Probably shouldn't have eaten them after, but hey, cookies.
Recipe for Car Cookies
1 tube Pilsbury cookie dough
Directions: Drop from spoon onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8 hours in very hot car. You might want to plan not to go anywhere - you could drive in some shade and your cookies won't be done, or go around a corner too fast and wear your cookies.
BTW - the car smelled awesome for weeks after this :D
