Chocolate Chip Cookies

-

 



Even when you say, "chocolate chip cookie" a chorus of orchestral musical sound comes though my brain. It is the most favorite cookie of all time. At the Heritage Farm Market this cookie sold out 90% of the time. It was the hot humid days that people went to the beach or ran through a hose in the yard to stay cool, when a few of these cookies made it back home at the end of the market. 
Definately a favorite with children, who chose the chocolate chip cookie over the others. I hope you enjoy this recipe and the cookies.

Closest thing to a Walnut Crunch.

 Good things come from experiments! A walnut crunch Sconut for example. Here we have a would be chocolate scone that has turned into a little walnut delight. I cannot call it a scone or a walnut chrunch as I believe Tim Horton's has the rights to it so we can call it a Sconut.  Half scone and half walnut crunch donut. I had a chocolate scone from Cobs Bakery and wanted to make one. When just substituting 1/4 of the flour with cocoa, I found the chocolate scone too dry and not sweet enough. After uping the sugar, butterand creams then trying again it dawned on me it tasted much like the beloved walnut crunch Tim Horton's no longer sells. I added a full cup of chopped lightly toasted walnuts and put a glaze on top and voila! We have a copycat! Here is the recipe: Chocolate Walnut Scones   Preheat to 425F or 218C All Purpose Flour                        ...

  I love dates squares. They've always been my go-to-date recipe. In fact I've used the same oat base recipe for other delicious creations like my strawberry/rhubarb cheesecake squares,  a perfect summer treat that everyone enjoys. But classic date squares?  These timeless delights are loved no matter the season.  This recipe comes straight from The Great Bake Take and Go Baking Book   and is a combination of four different recipes. The goal? Keep the flavor rich and use the best bits from them all while keeping the calories under control. Date Square Recipe Oat Base & Topping Ingredients All-purpose flour – 245 g (1¾ cups) Cinnamon – 3 g (½ tsp) Rolled oats – 180 g (2 cups) Brown sugar – 200 g (1 cup) Butter (cold, cubed) – 170 g (¾ cup) Baking soda – 2 g (½ tsp) Salt – 3 g (½ tsp) Date Filling Ingredients Pitted dates – 600 g (4 cups) Water – 375 g (1½ cups) (may nee...
