Momma said that if we pulled weeds yesterday, we could have cookies for a treat later. 🙂 I pulled thorns. I made cookies. Momma said since we did such a good job, she would make them big for us. I used chocolate chips and butterscotch chocolate chips. They were great!
Here is the recipe we used
- 1 cup butter softened
- 3/4 cup Demerara sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar (add another 1/4 cup if you like it sweeter, Momma cut the sugar down)
- 1 egg
- 2 cups soft white wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/4 cup coarsely ground almonds
- 3/4 cup butterscotch chips
- 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips
Beat butter with sugars and egg until creamy
Add remaining ingredients except chips, mix well, then fold in chips. Dough will be stiff
Use HUGE scoop to mold cookies. Place on parchment lined cookie sheet if you have it.
Bake 10-15 minutes in preheated 375 degree oven. Cookies will be soft in the middle but edges will be turning brown.
Carefully take off sheet to cool slightly before eating. If they fall apart, let them sit a little bit on the cookie sheet before removing to cool.
Sounds like a perfect reward! Btw tell Megan Henri was wearing his matching shirt yesterday!
I love the picture! Megan approves of the cookies, I see. I like you posting recipes. If or when I figure out the stove, I may try making some of your recipes. I didn’t bring any recipes with me. :-/ But I think this stove is a convection oven, and I have no idea how to work it!! I need you here to help!
Love you!!! Hugs and Kisses!
