Serving Size : 1

Categories : Cookies

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 cups All-purpose flour

2 teaspoons Instant coffee powder

3 teaspoons Cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon Almond extract

1 teaspoon Ginger

1 cup Granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1 cup Dark brown sugar -- *

1 teaspoon Baking soda

3 large (extra) or jumbo eggs

1 cup Butter

10 ounces Slivered blanched almonds**

 

* firmly packed ** (2 1/2 - 3 cups) These cookies go well with after dinner coffee or tea.

 

In a bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, salt and baking soda and set aside.

 

In a large bowl, cream the butter. Add the coffee, almond extract, granulated and brown sugars and beat well. Add the eggs one at a time until smooth after each addition. On low speed gradually add the sifted dry ingredients, scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula and beating only until the mixture is smooth. Gently mix in the almonds.

 

Spread out two pieces of wax paper. place large spoonfuls of the dough lengthwise on each piece of paper to form heavy strips about 10-11 inches long. Fold the long sides of the paper p against the dough and, pressing against the paper with your hands, shape each strip of dough into a smooth oblong 12 inches long, 3 inches wide, and about 1 inch thick. Wrap the dough in the wax paper.

 

Slide a cookie sheet under both packages of dough and transfer them to the freezer or refrigerator for several hours or overnight. This slices best when dough is frozen solid.

 

Preheat oven to 375¯. Unwrap one roll of dough at a time. Place dough on a cutting board. With a very sharp knife cut the dough into 1/4-inch slices and place them 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

 

Bake the cookies for about 10-12 minutes at 375¯. The cookies are done when they are slightly colored and spring back when lightly pressed with a fingertip.

[I made these last night to pack for my trip to Reno. Whatever you do, don't use creamy peanut butter! With just 1/2 cup nut butter mixed with 2 cups flour, the nut taste gets kind of lost. I used almond butter; we also used Can't believe it's not butter for the margarine. Don't round those Tbspfulls too high, as these cookies wind up a bit on the large size. I also forgot about flattening them out; oh well... What I have are chocolate chip cookies (mini-chips), with a faint almond flavor. ]

CHOCOLATE BROWN SUGAR COOKIES

 

Recipe By :

Serving Size : 3

1/2 C Brown sugar

Flour (1.1 C --> glass

1/2 pound Butter

cup filled

1/3 C Honey

the top)

1 large Egg

1/2 teaspoon Baking soda

1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract

1 C Chocolate chips

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Cream together the butter and the brown sugar, add egg and vanilla. Mix well. Add honey.

 

Measure flour and baking soda (I usually just mix the soda in with the flour.) Add flour and soda to batter a little at a time and mix. Add chocolate chips.

 

Drop by spoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 5-8 minutes at 375 degrees F.

 

NOTES:

 

* Chocolate chip cookies with honey and brown sugar.

 

* For those of you who like your cookies warm! I always make up only enough to eat, and store the batter in the fridge.

 

* You can substitute margarine for the butter if you want.

 

: Difficulty: easy, though creaming butter and sugar without a food processor is tedious.

: Time: 10 minutes preparation, 10 minutes cooking and cooling.

: Precision: measure the ingredients.

NOTES:

 

* Delicious high-fiber oatmeal drop cookies -- These oatmeal cookies are for cookie lovers to splurge with. Not only are they great tasting, but they are very high in fiber content and easy to make. The recipe is mine and is based on several different ideas in different cookbooks as how to best to make them. In fun, I call them "Invisible Oatmeal Cookies" because they are wont to disappear whenever unguarded. Enjoy.

 

* If any children (young or old) live within smelling distance of your stove, make extra cookies for when they suddenly show up for an unexpected visit.

 

* The recipe may be halved, doubled, or whatever without harm. The batter as well as the baked cookies freeze well. Thaw batter on countertop. Thaw cookies either in microwave or in oven.

 

: Difficulty: easy.

: Time: 30 minutes.

: Precision: measure the ingredients.

3 1/2 cups flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

OATMEAL FUDGE COOKIES

 

Recipe By :

Serving Size : 3

Categories : Cookies

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

3 C Rolled oats

1/2 C Cocoa powder

1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

1/2 C Evaporated milk

1 C Nuts -- chopped (optional)

1/4 pound Butter

2 C Sugar -- granulated

 

Combine oats, vanilla and nuts in a bowl and set aside.

 

Combine sugar, cocoa and evaporated milk in a heavy, 2-quart sauce pan.

Bring to a full rolling boil over medium-high heat, STIRRING CONSTANTLY.

Let boil, while stirring, for 2 minutes.

 

Remove pan from heat and add the butter. Stir until butter is melted and incorporated. Quickly add oat mixture to pan and stir until well mixed.

 

Drop by the spoonful onto waxed paper. Let cool for 2 hours to set.

 

NOTES:

 

* No-bake chocolate oatmeal cookies -- This may be my all-time favorite cookie recipe. I don't remember where I got this particular version of the recipe but I remember my great-aunt making these cookies for us as kids.

 

* My great-aunt never put nuts in these cookies. I like nuts but I find that they get lost in the recipe. If you want the oats to be less prominent, use quick-cooking oats. They will fall apart somewhat in the final mixing.

 

* A heavy sauce pan makes burning the fudge less likely but stir, stir, stir, anyway.

 

* The cooking time at boil is important. Cooked too little the cookies will not set; too much and they start to harden before you get them out of the pan.

 

* These cookies are better the next day, if there are any left.

 

: Difficulty: easy to moderate.

: Time: 20 minutes preparation and cooking, 2 hours cooling.

: Precision: measure the ingredients, watch the cooking time.

Rolled Buttery Lemon Cookies (Mailanderli)

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 cup Butter -- slightly softened (1

Lemon -- stick)

2/3 cup Granulated sugar -- plus more

flour -- for garnishing

1 large Egg

water

Finely grated peel (yellow

For glazing cookies. -- part only) of 1 larg

 

Grease several baking sheets and set aside. With a mixer at medium speed, beat the butter in a large mixer bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the sugar until well blended and smooth. Beat in the egg and lemon peel. With the mixer at low speed, beat in the flour just until evenly incorporated.

 

Divide the dough in half. Place each portion between large sheets of waxed paper. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to a scant 1/4 inch thick.

Check the undersides and smooth out any wrinkles in the waxed paper. Stack the rolled portions on a tray or baking sheet. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes or until cold and firm, but not hard.

 

Heat the oven to 375F. Working with one chilled portion of dough at a time (keep the other one chilled), peel away a layer of waxed paper. (This makes it easier to lift the cookies from the paper later.) Replace the paper and turn the dough over. Peel of the second layer of paper. Using a 2-inch round or scalloped cutter (or a small juice of sherry glass) cut out the cookies. Use a spatula to carefully lift the cookies from the paper and place them about 1 inch apart on the baking sheets. Reroll the dough scraps between waxed paper; rechill in the refrigerator. Repeat the process with the second portion of dough.

 

Working with a few cookies at a time, brush the tops with the egg yolk-water mixture using a pastry brush or paper towel. Sprinkle the tops lightly with granulated sugar. Repeat until all of the cookies are garnished.

 

Bake the cookies for 6 to 9 minutes or until the top is just tinged with brown and slightly darker at the edges. Let cool on the baking sheets for about 2 minutes. Transfer to wire racks and let stand until thoroughly cool. Store airtight for up to a week. Freeze for longer storage.

 

Makes 50 to 60 cookies.
