Voting Party Cookies Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
• In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and melted butter, until evenly combined and light in color.
• Add in the eggs and vanilla, mixing until smooth.
• Add the flour and baking powder, folding the mixture until it forms a smooth dough.
• Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly combined.
• Using an ice cream scoop, scoop 6 balls of dough onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
• Bake for 12 minutes, then serve!
• To save cookie dough for later use, scoop the dough into balls and place them side-by-side on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
• Wrap the tray with cling wrap, then freeze for up to one month.
• To bake the frozen dough balls, remove desired number from the tray and bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift together the flours, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
• In a medium or large saucepan, add the butter and melt over medium heat. The larger the pan you use, the quicker the process will be!
• Bring the butter to a boil, stirring frequently. As the water begins to boil out of the butter, the milk solids in the butter will separate, sink to the bottom, and begin to toast and brown. As this begins to happen, make sure to stir constantly so the butter browns evenly. It may become quite foamy, splatter a bit, and be difficult to see, so keep a close eye on it, removing from heat and continuing to stir if it starts to foam over.
• Once the butter has turned a nice nutty brown, remove from the heat and pour into a large liquid measuring cup to stop the cooking. Allow it to cool down for a minute or two, give it a stir, and carefully add 2-3 tablespoons of water to the butter to bring it back up to 1 cup (240 ml) of liquid.
• Set aside to cool to room temperature. To help speed this process up, you can place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes. You want to make sure the butter is still liquid when you're adding it to the dough later on, so make sure to remove after 15 minutes.
• In a large bowl, add the sugars, vanilla, espresso powder, and cooled brown butter. Cream together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
• Add the egg and yolk and beat until incorporated.
• Add the dry ingredients, about ⅓ of the mixture at a time, and beat between additions until just incorporated. It's okay for there to be a bit of unmixed flour on the edge of bowl, this will be incorporated in the next step.
• Using a wooden spoon, fold the chocolate chips and chunks into the dough
• Scoop the cookies onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet in 3-tablespoon-sized mounds.
• For optimal flavor, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or, even better, overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Evenly space the dough 3 inches (8 cm) apart from one another on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 12-14 minutes.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
• Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before falling back into the mixture.
• Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold the mixture with a spatula (Be careful not to overmix, which would cause the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies).
• Fold in the chocolate chunks, then chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. For a more intense toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill the dough overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 cm) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown.
• Cool completely before serving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl blend, cream cheese, butter, and sugar until fully combined.
• Add flour to cream cheese mixture and continue to blend together until fully combined.
• Add crushed cookies to the mixture and gently fold together. Ensure the cheesecake batter is fully mixed.
• Cover with plastic wrap and chill in refrigerator for 30 minutes, or until batter is firm to touch.
• Preheat oven to 350°F(180°C).
• Roll batter into small balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
• Using your fingers or a warm spoon press down on the dough balls to help form a cookie shape.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cookies turn golden brown on the bottom.
• Place cookies on a cooling rack and rest for at least 5 minutes.
• Enjoy!
