The problem with the chocolate chip recipe I use at work is that it’s so large. I mean, it starts with five pounds of sugar, twenty eggs and so on. Maybe I could try and cut it down, but a couple of the ingredients are weighed rather than measured. Hmmm. give me a little time here.
It’s gonna have to be tomorrow. Something is wrong with my floppy that the recipes are on
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1 cup rolled oats
2 eggs
1/2 brown sugar
1/6 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips
*Cranberries
*Cinnamon/Nutmeg
*Optional things
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325°
Cream butter and sugars. Beat in eggs, then stir in vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients, then chocolate chips and cranberries.
Drop rounded tsps, flatten, then dust w/ cinnamon and nutmeg. Bake for 8-15 minutes.
I like to make some tiny and bite-sized and then the rest proper cookie size. Mmm.
Cream together the sugars, the fats, the honey and vanilla. Blend in the eggs. Mix together the dry ingredients and the chips and add to the sugar mix, blending well. Scoop out into cookies of desire size and bake. These don’t spread on their own, so it’s necessary to flatten them some before baking at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
I feel that I have to add a yummy cookie recipe here, as well. Plus, I’m also nosy.
Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
1 C. Peanut Butter (smooth or crunchy)
1 C. Sugar
1 large Egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
* Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
* Mix the peanut butter, sugar, egg and vanilla until well combined.
* Using a medium disher, scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough, and place 1 1/2" apart onto the baking sheet. If you don't have a cookie scoop, drop the dough with a spoon.
* Flatten the dough balls the tines of a fork, making a cross pattern on the cookies.
* Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until they are golden around the edges.
Allow the cookies to rest on the counter for 2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
I’ve always had good luck just using the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip bag. Using milk chocolate chips makes my husband a very happy man. Simple happiness is a big glass of milk and warm home-made chocolate chip cookies.
There’s a variation where you use fresh (soft) jujubes, quartered, instead of chocolate chips, and I like that just fine as well. They get nicely chewy.
Savannah, I like using the milk chocolate chips, too. Very tasty. I also tend to use half the amount of baking soda that cookie recipes call for, because the cookies turn out much more fluffy that way.
I’m diabetic, and I’m trying to talk myself into making the flourless peanut butter cookies with Splenda. I don’t know if I’ve got the guts to do it, though. I may go a bit crazy in a few days, and give it a shot. Just to see if they’re as horrid as I think they’ll be, or if they’re actually palatable, which I seriously doubt.
