27 Jan 00 - 10:56 AM (#169149) Subject: Caitrin's Cookie Recipe From: Caitrin If anyone has come here because his or her cookie won't reset, this is the wrong place. : ) Some people on ICQ last night had expressed an interest in my non-electronic chocolate chip cookie recipe, but I got booted from ICQ before I could give it. So...here it is. Ingredients: 3 eggs 1 lb. light brown sugar 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 2 tbs. vanilla 1 lb. butter, softened 6 cups flour 1 1/2 tsp. salt 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. baking powder 2 12 oz. packages Ghirardelli choc chips (one bag semi-sweet, one bag milk chocolate)I use Ghirardelli because the chips are bigger, but that's really just a personal preference) 5 cups walnut chunks 1/2 cup Kahlua Directions: Preheat oven to 350. In one bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Four into large mixing bowl. Really large. This makes a lot of batter. Add softened butter to eggs. Add sugars and vanilla and mix to combine. Add 1/4 cup of Kahlua and mix in well. Now measure out the six cupos of flour, Sifting each cup into a yet another bowl as you measure. Once all six cups are measured and sifted, add salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix well with a fork or whisk. Now add the dry ingredients slowly (about one cup at a time) to the egg mixture. Periodically mix in the remaining 1/4 cup of Kahlua. Once batter is done, fold chocolate chips and nuts into mixture. (Be sure to use a sturdy spoon...a friend of mine broke the handle off of a wooden spoon in this batter!) Line a cookie sheet with wax paper and use an ice cream scoop to drop batter onto paper. (I can usually fit about 6 cookies on a cookie sheet.) Bake the cookies for 15 minutes and let them cool for at least 5 before attempting to move them. Makes about 50 cookies. Hope you enjoy them! |

I split the recipe in 1/2, and made 1/2 with Kahlua and 1/2 with Bailey's....both are aboslutely SCRUMPTIOUS!!!Nice and chewy, and full of chocolate!! I think I actually prefer the Bailey's ones, just a hint of Irish Cream.....ummm, good. Definitely worth a trip to the store. Oh, yeah, the little airline size mini bottles are exactly 1/4 cup each, so all you people who are worried about leftovers, just buy the little ones instead. BTW, the recipe halves beautifully. THANKS, CAITRIN!!!!! |

8 ounces (oz) plain flour Rub the butter and flour together until crumbly. Add sugar, spices and currants. Mix well. Add the other ingredients and mix to a stiff dough. If it is too sticky, add more flour. On a floured board, roll out to about half an inch thick (the thickness of the average wooden spoon handle - a use for the one that broke making Caitrins' cookies earlier....) and cut into rounds with a large cutter or the wide end of a pint glass. Prick with a fork and bake in a moderate oven - gas mark a5, 350f or 180c. Turn out to cool on a rack and dust with caster sugar before cool. Enjoy - they can be used as Easter biscuits if you like, they are similar in construction, but a bit richer with the cream and sherry and that..... LTS |
