Spreads
Cookies Recipe
Preheat
oven to 350°
Ingredients:
1
cup firmly packed brown sugar
1
cup butter (two sticks) softened
1
egg, room temp
2
cups AP flour, preferably King Arthur
1
tsp vanilla
½
tsp salt
8
ounces of chips – your choice semi-sweet, white, butterscotch, etc.
Directions:
In
your mixer whip the butter until fluffy, add the brown sugar to incorporate, in
a separate bowl mix together the egg and the vanilla and add to the butter,
then add the salt and finally add the two cups of flour.
Once
the mixture is all incorporated spread onto a Silpat lined cookie sheet making
a rectangle as smooth and even as possible.
You want the mixture to be as even as possible.
Bake
for about 15 minutes, remove from the oven and put the chips on top and return
to the oven for approximately 1 minute 30 seconds. Remove from the oven and spread the chocolate
(or other chips) to the edges of the cookies and then place your toppings. Let the cookies completely cool and cut into
squares.
On Saturday Heath and I made Spreads with semi-sweet milk chocolate chips, Heath bar chips (natch!) and walnuts that we put into the food processor - we called these "English Toffee Bars."
Once the cookies are done and you put the chips on to melt then simply add your toppings, let the cookies cool and cut into squares.
Hubby, Belle and I liked the ones with the white chocolate best but there are so many ways to make these your cookie. Some semi-sweet (or Hershey's chips) then add crushed graham crackers and little marshmallows, butterscotch chips and some walnuts and drizzle with caramel - or just add the chips - whatever your little heart desires. Have some fun with this cookie.
