Grandma Pat's chocolate chip cookies

 

I thought I would share my beautiful Grandma Pat's chocolate chip cookie recipe.

I think she would want you all to have it. :)

 

 

 

 

Preheat the oven to 350

1 box of yellow cake mix

1/2 cup of butter softened

2 teaspoons of vanilla

2 T of water

1 12oz. bag of milk chocolate chips

1/2 cup of nuts (optional)

 

Mix away!

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT.

Get two spoons (scoop with one and use the other to push off the spoon).

Scoop about a tablespoon size dollop onto the pan.

If you try to roll it in your hands, you will cry.

It's super sticky.

 

 

 

 

Cook for 12 minutes.

 

 

 

 

Let them cool a little, pour some milk and enjoy!

Molasses Cookies

   I think I have found a new favorite smell.  

Warm molasses cookies. 

 They are the most perfect winter smell.  

And have them with a mug of milk.  

Perfection.

 

source/ source

3/4 cup margarine, melted

1 cup white sugar

1 egg

1/4 cup of molasses

2 cups all-purpose flour

 2 teaspoons baking soda

 1/2 teaspoon salt

1 t ground cinnamon

1/2 t ground cloves

1/2 t ground ginger

1/2 cup white sugar 

1. In a medium bowl, mix together the melted margarine, 1 cup sugar, and egg until smooth. Stir in the molasses. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger; blend into the molasses mixture. Cover, and chill dough for 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Roll dough into walnut sized balls, and roll them in the remaining white sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until tops are cracked. Cool on wire racks.
