MILLION DOLLAR COOKIES



Million Dollar Cookies image

Sugar cookie with a delightful blend of flavors and crispy edges. The first time I tasted this cookie I just said "wow". It's my favorite cookie jar cookie and I highly recommended it. If you bake and ship to loved ones, this cookie travels very well even in summer heat. I use bubble wrap between layers and they survive the trip to Iraq.

Time 35m

Yield 24 cookies, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons butter, soft
3/4 cup Crisco, butter flavored
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons almond flavoring
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Oven 350° for 12-15 minutes until edges are slightly brown.
  • Cream fats and sugars until fluffy.
  • Add egg and beat until absorbed.
  • Add flavorings to creamed mixture.
  • Sift dry ingredients together into separate bowl and blend together.
  • Add dry to creamed mixture and mix just until flour is incorporated; do not over mix.
  • Chill dough.
  • Roll into balls and flatten on cookie sheet with glass bottom dipped in sugar.
  • My addition of some butter allows the fats and sugars to crème to a fluffy consistency superior to Crisco alone. Butter has a small percentage of water that helps build volume and break down the sugars. The use of all butter will result in a softer cookie if this is your preference. This important 1st stage of preparation will make good cookies, blue ribbon winners.

MILLION DOLLAR COOKIES

This cookie is to die for very good with a tall glass of milk or cup of coffee. I had these cookies years ago at my families house during a passing away which everyone brought something and I had to have the recipe. I never changed it and it was a comfort food at that time. I make these when I need a warm feeling in my soul.

  • 2. In another bowl combine flour,oatmeal,salt,baking powder, baking soda Combine this with the egg mixture but now use a strong spatula or metal spoon this will make the batter hard to mix. Once this is mixed well its time to add your choc. chips and grated Hershey and nuts.
  • 3. The batter will be hard to mix but I have faith you can do it. Once all mixed I put mine in frig. to get cold for easy handling about 20 mins. Once it is cold shape into balls, I use a medium size cookie scoop .
  • 4. Place 2" apart on greased cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 mins. pending on your oven. Bake at 350* The cookie will be slightly brown on bottom and soft to the touch on top which is what you want. Take out and put on wire rack or wax paper. In one batch I got 80 cookies. Or just roll your own.
