CHOCOLATE-CHIP OATMEAL COOKIES WITH RAS EL HANOUT
Everyone loves a good oatmeal cookie - and this one will take you straight to Morocco. Ras el hanout is a common Moroccan spice blend and translates to "top of the shop" in Moroccan Arabic, which suggests that the spices selected were the finest available in the merchant's shop at the moment. The fragrant and warming spices of ras el hanout pair beautifully with the sweetness of the oatmeal cookie and the sharpness of the dark chocolate. Because of the spice mixture, these cookies won't appear to brown much, so be careful not to overbake. You can use your favorite store-bought ras el hanout for your cookies or make your own blend (see tip).

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the sugar, butter, egg and vanilla in a large bowl, and use a handheld electric whisk or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to mix all ingredients until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the oats, flour, ras el hanout, baking soda and salt; mix on a low speed until everything is just incorporated, about 30 seconds. Use a spatula to fold in the chocolate.
- Scoop the dough in single heaping tablespoonfuls and transfer them to the lined baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each piece.
- Bake until the edges are light golden brown and the center of each cookie is a bit soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pasta will taste. Look for organic, locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.
- Toast the nuts and spices: Toasting the nuts and spices in the almond butter sauce brings out their flavor and aroma. Be careful not to burn them, as this will make the sauce bitter.
- Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian, and it refers to the ideal state of cooked pasta. The pasta should be firm to the bite, but not hard or mushy.
- Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give the pasta plenty of room to cook evenly. If you use a skillet that is too small, the pasta will be crowded and will not cook properly.
- Add the almond butter sauce to the pasta while it is still hot: This will help the sauce to coat the pasta evenly.
- Garnish the pasta with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or cilantro, will add a pop of color and flavor to the pasta.
Conclusion:
This almond butter and ras el hanout pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The almond butter sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the ras el hanout adds a warm and exotic spice blend. The pasta is a great source of protein and fiber, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
