Crazy question - for the cookies - you took the dough and rolled it into a log instead of dropping on the cookie sheet immediately? I LOVE THIS! No more slice and bake for this busy mama.

yes, that's exactly what I did. If you want to keep the log in your freezer for a while, then just wrap in plastic bag (so it doesn't smell like the freezer, you know what I mean?), and remove it from freezer about 20 minutes before you want to bake. Slice, bake at 375 for 8 minutes, and serve with milk! I'm sure there is an ideal temperature that the dough should be when you put them in the oven, but I always wing it, and it doesn't disappoint.

So glad you enjoyed your stay in Providence! I've been itching to try Oak Bakeshop...and Persimmon has long been on my list as well.

My mom is the oldest of 6 siblings with 4 younger brothers. The story goes that her two youngest brothers made it to their teens before they knew cookies weren't automatically served warm, because they only ever ate fresh ones from the oven! Spoiled rotten 😁

the cookies are going to be my next sweet venture! Speaking of venture next time you are in RI you should venture out to Block Island (if the ferries are running!!) AND the next time we are on the mainland and in Providence we will try your recommended spots!
