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.

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.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos .
