Cookies I: Guittard Chocolate Mint Chip

I’m sorry for the haitus in posts this holiday season.  I checked my stats this morning and I’m still getting regular visits each day – so thank you to my loyal readers.  I promise this new year will be more consistent.

Here is a post on cookies.  Guittard makes really good chocolate chips, and on the back of each Mint Chip package, they have a recipe for Chocolate Mint Chip Cookies that are pretty delicious.

I also posted a recipe for White Chocolate Macadamia Nuts.  I’ve learned that my cookies from last time didn’t turn out becuase I exchanged the brown sugar for white (I wanted a whiter cookie).  But brown sugar is essential to preserve moistness and fluffiness of the cookie.  So my lesson learned?  If you must improvise, make it an educated one.  For a cookie that is not as sweet – (edit: thanks jayne) cut back on the sugars in equal amounts.

New posts in the making.  Happy Holidays and check back soon!

    i tried out your chiffon cake recipe today and it was the fluffiest cake that i’ve ever tasted =] as for your sugar subtraction…if you use more brown sugar than white, i read that baking soda should be added to neutralize the aciditiy…i forgot what that does tho =P i think if you decrease both sugars in equal amounts you should be safe =]
