I like to bake cookies, and I'm always trying to design something new and yummy.
My 2011 Christmas Cookie creation is not only festive looking in color, but tastes spectacular!
I hope you try it out and enjoy it as much as we do!
Christmas Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
1 1/8 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c butter flavor shortening
3/4 c dark brown sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp vanilla powder
1 Tbsp allspice, ground
1 lg egg
1/2 c vanilla or white chocolate chips
1 c dried cranberries; original
1 c coarsely chopped pistachios
Directions:
1. Pre-heat the oven to 350F degrees.
2. Lay a sheet of foil, shiny side up on a cookie sheet; spray with non-stick cooking spray.
3. Mix ingredients together in order till soft dough is formed.
4. Roll dough into bite-sizes balls.
5. Lay 3 across-4 down (1 dozen) on the cookie sheet.
6. BAKE FOR ONLY 8-10 ONLY- NO LONGER!!! They will burn! No peeking either! :)
7. Remove from oven, and let the cookie sheet "slam" down to let the cookies "fall".
8. Cool cookies on sheet for 5 minutes, then remove to wire cooling rack.
9. Respray cookie sheet after each baked batch if baking more cookies.
