This seriously could not be more off-topic, but I've been doing quite a few baking experiments in my spare time and sharing the results with friends and coworkers, and this recipe is one that enough people have asked for it just makes sense to put it online and share it with the universe. You don't need a mixer for this recipe, just a bowl and a spoon and some determination.
So, if you happen to also enjoy baking as well as costuming, i guess today is your lucky day and this is a recipe lagniappe for following this blog!
Ingredients:
2 tbsp bacon fat
2 tbsp butter
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 tbsp granulated sugar
6 tbsp brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup all purpose flour
Preheat your oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with some parchment.
Put the bacon fat, butter, and 1/4 cup of the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and zap it for one minute, then stir it all together til well mixed. Stir in both sugars til well mixed, then add the egg and vanilla. Again stir til well mixed. Add the cinnamon, salt, and baking powder, and stir til you don't see any powdery lumps. Add the cocoa powder and stir it in good, then the flour. At this point you will need to put your arm into it, but i promise it will all stir in without any need for a mixer. I tend to add the flour in half-cup increments. Then, stir in the remainder of your chocolate chips.
Drop the cookie dough in roughly tablespoonish blops onto your cookie sheet. It makes about 15 cookies and i like to do three rows of five. Bake them on the center rack for 10 minutes. No more, no less. They may look a tad underbaked when you take them out, but trust me, they are not. Let them cool, and then enjoy!
