Copycat Texas Cow Patties Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and line a plate with wax paper.
• For the nuts: Melt the butter in a skillet and add the brown sugar and a pinch salt. Cook until the butter starts to bubble, about 3 minutes, then add the almonds and peanuts and stir to coat the nuts completely. Sprinkle over the cinnamon and stir until incorporated. Transfer to the lined plate and set aside to cool.
• For the dough: Cream together the granulated sugar and butter in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, scraping the sides once, until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Mix in the vanilla.
• Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt, then add in batches to the mixer, mixing until just combined after each addition. Gently stir in the chocolate chips, dried cranberries and reserved cooled nuts.
• Using a 1/3-cup scoop, add portions of the dough to the lined baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart.
• Bake until the middles of the cookies are set, about 20 minutes. They will be fragile at this stage, so let them cool for 10 minutes, then move them to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
• 2. Cream sugar and butter. Add eggs, vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add flour.
• 3. Melt semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave, taking care to stir every 15 seconds to prevent burning.
• 4. Mix melted chocolate chips in with the cookie batter.
• 5. Drop by 1-2 tablespoons onto baking sheet. Bake for 7-8 minutes. *DO NOT OVERBAKE!* The perfect cookie will be crispy around the edges but soft and cake-like in the center!
• 6. While cookies are cooling, mix all frosting ingredients using the low speed setting on your mixer.
• 7. Once the cookies are cooled, pipe frosting onto them in a swirl pattern starting at the outside and working your way in.

Steps:

• Melt together shortening and butter. Blend in the remaining ingredients in a large bowl with melted shortening and butter mixture. Use ice cream scoop to scoop dough on to cookie sheets, 6 cookies to a sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F until chewy, about 15 minutes. Yields 5 dozen.

Steps:

• 1. WAFFLE: Stir together first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Stir together egg, milk and butter; add to cornmeal mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Bake in a preheated, oiled waffle iron just until crisp.
• 2. Place waffle on a plate and spread chili to cover top of waffle. Top chili with any combination of the following to taste: cheese, onion, jalapeno slices, and sour cream.

Steps:

• Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Melt the chocolate in a microwave or in a bowl set over a pan of boiling water. Pour in the raisins, almonds and peanuts and stir to combine.
• Use a spoon or small cookie scoop to place mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. Leave to sit at room temperature or in the fridge for 5 minutes to set. Package in gift sacks!

Steps:

• Cover baking sheets with wax paper and set aside.
• Combine sugar and cocoa in a large saucepan. Stir in milk, butter and peanut butter. Cook and stir over medium heat until butter melts and mixture is combined, about 5-20 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir in the vanilla, oats and nuts, and mix thoroughly. Take a teaspoon and scoop out a spoonful of the mixture; drop the spoonful onto the waxed paper-covered baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. Place in the refrigerator until the cookies are cooled and set. Store the cookies in an airtight container.
