Triple Nut Butter Bourbon Cookies

This is how inspiration works in my kitchen. Last night, it resulted in these cookies. I was dubious that the ingredients would actually result in a cookie, but they did!

One of my best friends emailed me this photo. Another one of his friends had scribbled this down at swim practice. The only words in the email: "If you want to try…they are soooooo goooooooood!!!" Okay. Sold.

So, I went to the website she references and found a slightly different recipe. Then, because I can't follow a recipe to save my life - well, I probably could to save my life - I slightly adapted it. I used three different kinds of nut butter, swapped out the vanilla for bourbon, and added hemp seeds.

Ingredients

1/2 C bourbon pecan peanut butter (I bought mine at Mouth)
1/2 C raw almond butter
1/2 C raw peanut butter
1/2 C honey (I used pine honey)
1 T bourbon
2 eggs, room temperature
½ t baking soda
2 T hemp seeds
1 T instant coffee
1/3 C semi-sweet chocolate chips

Procedure

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with silicone mats.

In a large bowl, mix nut butters, honey, bourbon, eggs, baking soda, hemp seeds, and instant coffee until smooth and well combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips.

Use a scoop and place the batter 1-1/2" apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Cook cookies on the sheet for 5 to 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool.

And there you have it - gluten-free, honey-sweetened cookies in less than 30 minutes. Sweet.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy. Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here.

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce
