RAISIN-NUT SPICE COOKIES



Raisin-Nut Spice Cookies image

Categories     Cookies     Bake     Raisin     Almond     Walnut     Spice     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes about 30

Number Of Ingredients 17

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 cup powdered sugar
8 teaspoons (about) whole milk
1 cup whole almonds (about 5 ounces), toasted, cooled
1/2 cup walnut pieces (about 2 ounces), toasted, cooled
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, room temperature
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel
1 teaspoon aniseed
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 large egg yolks
1 cup golden raisins

Steps:

  • Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Spray 2 large baking sheets with nonstick spray.
  • Place powdered sugar in small bowl. Mix in enough milk by teaspoonfuls (about 5) to form thick, smooth glaze. Cover glaze; set aside. Combine almonds and walnuts in processor. Using on/off turns, blend until most nuts are reduced to 1/4-inch pieces (some will be very finely ground). Combine flour, butter, 2/3 cup sugar, citrus peels, aniseed, salt, spices, and baking soda in large bowl. Using electric mixer, beat at low speed until fine meal forms. Add egg yolks and beat until clumps form. Add nuts and raisins. Beat until dough holds together, adding milk by teaspoonfuls (about 3) if dough is dry. Knead dough briefly to compact.
  • Roll out 1/3 of dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4- to 1/3-inch-thick rectangle. Cut lengthwise into 2-inch-wide strips. Cut each strip on diagonal into 11/2- to 2-inch diamonds. Transfer diamonds to baking sheet. Gather dough scraps and reserve. Repeat with remaining dough. Reroll scraps, cutting out more cookies, until all dough is used.
  • Bake cookies, 1 sheet at a time, until golden, about 17 minutes. Spoon generous 1/2 teaspoon glaze over each hot cookie and spread with back of spoon to coat. Let cookies stand on baking sheets until completely cool and glaze is set. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Store airtight between sheets of waxed paper at room temperature.)

OATMEAL RAISIN SPICE COOKIES



Oatmeal Raisin Spice Cookies image

My husband loves oatmeal raisin cookies, soft chewy ones. I got this basic recipe from an online site, can't remember which one and added the spices I wanted to use...they are so good...

Provided by Debbie Bankston

Categories     Cookies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 c sugar
1 egg, beaten lightly
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
3/4 c self rising flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 c quick oats
1/2 c raisins-soaked to plump them
baking sheets lined with parchment

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the spices with the flour and sift one time to blend. Cream the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla, mix well. Add the flour mixture and mix well. Fold in the oats and raisins blending them in.
  • 2. Drop by heaping teaspoons or use smallest scoop, onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes, DO NOT overbake or they will be hard...for nice smooth chewy cookies, 8 minutes is all they cook, remove from oven, cool on sheet for two minutes then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
  • 3. Note: Raisins may be plumped using water or juice...I use apple juice and brind to just a simmer in a boiler on the stove, remove from heat and let them set while I work on the batter, then squeeze the excess juice away and add to the batter.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Use parchment paper: This will prevent the cookies from sticking to the baking sheet and make them easier to remove.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing: This will help them keep their shape and flavor.

Conclusion:

These raisin spice cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a warm and spicy flavor. Follow the tips above to ensure your cookies turn out perfect every time. Enjoy!
