Inventive Baking Ideas Sought for Imaginary Cookies (A Mostly Nonsense Post)

[radiantfracture]

Do you anxiety bake? Does stirring batter induce a soothing flow state in you? Me too!

I also love autogenerated and random language poetry. I don't know what the connection might be. Anyway, here's a mostly nonsensical project.

I'd really quite like to derive real recipes for the imaginary cookies generated by the AI in the latest AI Weirdness post, particularly the following:

• Lord's Honey Fight (which sounds DELICIOUS)
• Fluffin Coffee Drops
• Quitterbread Bars (v. Harry Pottery)
• Merry Hunga Poppers
• Hand Buttersacks
• Hallowy Maples (also delicious)
• Apricot Dream Moles

If a recipe arises that seems workable, I will undertake to make it over the winter break and post the results.

Any thoughts or inspirations? How do the names work for you as prompts for sense-images and baking algorithms?

First Reflections on Imaginary Cookies

The drawing in the post for Lord's Honey Fight shows a sort of cinnamon-roll-esque device. I think that's clever, but I'm not sure it's grand enough for a Lord's Honey Fight. Might that be a big pan of bars like a delicious, delicious field of mediaeval battle?

I'm thinking Fluffin Coffee Drops could be whipped shortbread with coffee flavouring. (I don't love whipped shortbread, but with coffee and a flurky name, maybe.)

Hallowy maples I see more or less as just a dish of cookie full of maple syrup. Maybe maple butter tarts (a real thing I had once and have never forgotten).

I was actually given a jar of homemade apricot jam that seems ideal for Apricot Dream Moles.
