During this time, I recommend having some fun in the kitchen with your honey. Pour each of you a glass of wine. Wear matching aprons. Feel free to get a little silly... remember when you first were living together?
I found this unique recipe and didn't tell son #2 about the cream cheese, (he hates the stuff). The
addition of cream cheese gives these chocolate chip cookies a rich, dense,
cake-like texture.
Give it a try!
Ingredients:
- 4 ounces
cream cheese, room temperature
- 4 ounces
butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup
packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup
granulated sugar
- 1 large
egg
- 1 1/2
teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
- 1/2
teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4
teaspoon salt
- 1 cup
semisweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips
Preparation:
·
Heat oven to 350°. Grease a cookie sheet, or spray with
nonstick cooking spray, or line with silicone liner.
·
In a mixing bowl with electric mixer, beat cream cheese,
butter, and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla until
smooth. Slowly beat in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold in chocolate
chips.
·
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet(s),
leaving about 1 inch between cookies. These cookies spread very little. Bake
for 10 to 14 minutes, or until the cookies are set and lightly browned around
the edges.
·
Makes 2 1/2 to 3 dozen cookies.
