Try to use organic or the highest quality ingredients you can find. If you love cookie dough, this one will not disappoint. After my husband discovered the cookie dough in the fridge I am surprised I had anything left to bake.


Cognac Chocolate Chip Cookies

45 min Prep Time | 8-10 min Cook Time| 55 min Total Time

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons Rémy Martin 1738 Cognac
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1/2 cup walnut (or pecans)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Cream the butter.
  3. Mix in both sugars slowly to the creamed butter.
  4. Mix till smooth.
  5. Add cognac and egg.
  6. Beat.
  7. Stir in flour, baking soda, salt.
  8. Add chocolate and nuts.
  9. Give ample space between cookies as place put on the greased cookie sheet. I only did 6 cookies at a time. When on the baking sheet, put in fridge for 15 minutes so the dough becomes firm before baking.
  10. Bake 8 to 10 minutes at 350 degrees. The cookies should be crisp with browned edges, and centers baked through.
