I love being home. One of my favorite parts of being home is my kitchen. I get to cook and eat anything I'd like, whenever I'd like to. There's an old addage that's something like, "Listen to your body, It'll tell you what to eat." Often I just crave colors. Like Red. Sometimes I need to eat red foods. I'm assuming my body is asking for Anthocyanidin or something. Today my body told me that I needed to eat chocolate cookies. I've been wanting to make these for weeks, today I skipped my afternoon swim and baked these instead.
Cookies– 2c flour (I used whole wheat)
– 1tsp baking powder
– 2/3c sugar
– 3/4c butter
– 1 egg
– 2 tsp almond flavor Chocolate Ganache
– 1 bag of chocolate chips
– anywhere from a few Tbs to about 1/4 pint of Heavy Whipping Cream Roll into walnut sized balls, flatten and bake at 350 for 15-20min until light golden brown. Let them cool. To make the ganache, whisk the cream into the chocolate a Tbs at a time over low heat or a double boiler, you want the texture to be thick and spreadable. Spoon on Tbs of ganache on top of each cookie. Let sit until solidified.
These sound wonderful. I’ve got to try them.
