If it helps the name at all, give it a french accent.
I got the hankering to make some cookies and now I'm nauseous from cookie dough. I'm also sugar high or just super tired. Here we go.
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup toffee chips
- Cream the 1 cup (2 sticks) of butter with a mixer.
- Add 3/4 cup white sugar and 3/4 cup brown sugar and get that all mixed.
- Beat in 2 eggs one at a time.
- Add 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, mix 2 1/4 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Collide the flour mixture and the butter mixture.
- Mix in 1 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup toffee chips.
- You have two options:
- Put parchment paper on a cookie sheet.
- Put mounds of cookie dough on the parchment paper.
- 375 degrees for about 10-12 minutes.
This made a ton of cookies and I'm pretty sure all my sampling of cookie dough reduced the amount of cookies I made by at least 2-3. The original recipe says 12-14 minutes and I think it was a little too long. My first batch charred a bit but also my oven sucks. It's so small I cannot fit a normal sized cookie sheet in so I had to use a bunch of small ones. The parchment paper is a gift. Less cleanup and nothing sticks to it. So awesome.
Here is the first recipe I have made up on my own...
GREAT WHITE NORTH GARLIC CHILI
Ingredients
- 1-2 lbs hamburger
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp group black pepper
- pinch red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp ground red pepper
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 Tbsp chili powder
- 2 cans diced tomatoes with peppers and stuff (prefer hot!)
- 2 cans chili hot beans
- 1 can northern white beans (this is what makes the title!)
Instructions
- Cook the hamburger and chop up the garlic and add it to the hamburger whenever.
- In a crock-pot put in the cans of tomatoes and beans. You can drain the tomatoes or not, but don't drain the beans, just dump them in. Save the chili hot beans cans for later.
- When almost all the hamburger is browned, add the spices and cook for a while til the kitchen smells good.
- Put the cooked hamburger and spices into the crock-pot, grease and all. Recipes that tell you to drain the grease are foolish (not based on fact).
- If it's not soupy enough, rinse the chili hot bean cans with a bit of water and dump it in for more juice.
Thanks to Tara for accidentally buying white northern beans instead of garbanzo beans. Without your purchase this chili would have been less beanie, less tasty, and less white.
