Yield Makes about 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup golden raisins, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup brandy
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
6 ounces white chocolate, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup fine sanding or granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Bring raisins and brandy to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat, and let stand for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together flour, cocoa, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, the baking soda, and salt.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Beat butter and brown sugar with a mixer on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add honey, and beat until creamy. Reduce speed to low, add flour mixture, and beat until combined. Drain raisins; discard liquid. Add raisins and chocolate to dough. Mix to combine.
  • Whisk together sanding sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Scoop 2 tablespoons dough. Roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture, and shape into a ball. Roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture again to coat completely. Repeat with remaining dough. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart, as you work. Bake until just set and starting to crack, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool on sheets.

EASY- SARAH'S CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Easy- Sarah's Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These cookies are so easy, I've been making them since I was 6 years old. My aunt is a professional baker, and gave me the recipe as a child. I still use, and now my kids do too. One bowl, one fork, one pan and a set of measure cups and spoons. - Note- Yes, these dooo flatten quite a bit, but I've also noticed that if there's even a teaspoon too much butter, or a bit less baking soda that happens, so when I mix the sugars into the butter, if the mix has any extra butter in it, I try to either drain it off, or spoon it out.... or I add more B.soda.... Seems to help a bit.

1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/8 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

  • Freeze for 1/2 an hour, or refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Bake at 325 F for approximately 8-10 minutes on an UN-greased cookie sheet. If you overcook, they aren't as good. These cookies disappear fast, so eat them faster. If you can't eat them right away, put them in the freezer, and they stay nice and chewy longer.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This is especially important for the butter and eggs.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help the cookies achieve a chewy texture.
  • Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing will result in tough cookies.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown. Overbaking will result in dry cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before storing them. This will help them to stay crisp.

Conclusion:

These raisin cookies are a classic treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple tips, you can make the best raisin cookies you've ever tasted.
