These are chocolate chip cookies with a hint of lime, which gives them a nice darker shade and a noticeably different taste. If you use the iced tea scoop instruction, instead of the tablespoon method, the cookies will take somewhere between 15 and 18 minutes to cook. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
0.5 (12 ounce) package milk chocolate chips |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
2 large eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
2 3/4 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
7 teaspoons lime extract |
Directions:
1. Beat butter and sugars until they are fluffy (medium setting on a mixer).
2. Gradually add eggs and vanilla and beat well.
3. Combine flour, salt, and baking soda with the butter mixture, beating at low speed (low setting on a mixer) until blended.
4. Stir in lime extract and chocolate chips.
5. Drop onto lightly greased cookie sheet with a tablespoon; for bigger cookies, I used an iced tea scoop.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes (using the tablespoon), or 15-18 minutes (using the iced tea scoop) or until golden brown.
7. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
