2007-01-07 2:42 PM three cookie recipes you've never seen And I know that because two of them are from my sister-in-law, who translated them from Czech for me, and one is a "kirsten-modified" chocolate chip cookie recipe. So there.
Chocolate wheels 300 grams of crushed nilla wafers 100 grams of chocolate 100 grams of butter, softened 200 grams of sugar (but I usually cut this to 100 grams) 2 tbspns oil 50 grams of cocoa powder (1 tbspn of liquor of choice) Melt the chocolate. Mix butter and sugar until creamy and smooth. Mix all ingredients together. Make a log by putting half of the mixture onto a large piece of saran wrap. Roll it out into a sausage shape. Tie off one end and squish so that hte mixture is tightly packed, but still in a sausage shape. Tie off other end. Put in refrigerator over night. Cut slices about half an inch or so. Serve. (be careful cutting the slices, they tend to crumble a bit if you don't have a certain knack to it) Citrus Marzipan Cookies 250 grams of soft butter 150 grams powdered sugar 2 egg yolks pinch of salt 400 grams of unbleached flour 200 grams of marzipan tablespoon of liquor of choice 80 grams diced candied lemon peel 50 grams of diced, candied orange peel Grate butter over flour and sugar. Add egg yolks. Mix with hands until dough comes together and smooths out. (this may take a little bit of time) Wrap dough and put in fridge for at least two hours. Take about half the dough and roll out in a rectangle-ish shape until about 5 millimeters thick (do this on a large piece of saran wrap) Mix liquor, peels, and marzipan. Spread half thinly over rolled out dough. Using the saran wrap, fold the dough over itself twice, as if rolling sushi. Remove saran wrap, slice into inch-thick slices and put on cookie tray. Bake at 250 for about 20 minutes in the middle of the oven. Kirsten's Oatmeal/Wheat Germ/Molasses/Whole Wheat flour Chocolate Chip cookies 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour 1/4 cup wheat germ 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp baking powder pinch of salt 2 shakes of cinnamon 1 cup sugar 1/4 cup molasses 1/2 cup softened butter 1 egg 1 tspn vanilla extract 1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats 1 cup chocolate chips nuts to taste Preheat oven to 400 degrees. MIx flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, wheat germ and oats together in a bowl with a whisk. Cream butter and sugar, add vanilla and egg and beat well. Add half of dry ingredients, mixing gently, add last half and mix until well incorporated. Add chips and nuts. Place golf-ball sized pieces of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets greased only with the leftover butter on the wrapper. Do not flatten the dough. Bake for about 8 minutes. Cookies will appear underdone. DO NOT OVERBAKE, they are supposed to be soft cookies. Yields about 23 cookies. Read/Post Comments (0) Previous Entry :: Next Entry Back to Top |
