MARGARITA SORBET WITH SALTED PEANUT CRISPS



Margarita Sorbet with Salted Peanut Crisps image

Categories     Cookies     Bake     Peanut     Boil

Yield makes 1 quart (1 liter) sorbet and about 40 cookies; 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Sorbet
3 cups (750 ml) water
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
Grated zest of 4 limes, preferably organic
1 cup (250 ml) freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 cup (125 ml) tequila
2 tablespoons (30 ml) plus 2 teaspoons orange-flavored liqueur, such as Grand Marnier, Cointreau, or Triple Sec
Cookies
3/4 cup (115 g) unsalted roasted peanuts
3/4 cup (110 g) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (4 ounces/115 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
1/4 cup (60 g) packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tablespoon boiling water
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • To make the sorbet, in a medium saucepan, bring the water, 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar, and lime zest to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Pour the mixture into a medium bowl and let cool completely. Stir in the lime juice, tequila, and orange-flavored liqueur. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.
  • Freeze in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • To make the cookies, position the racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, grind the peanuts with the flour until the peanuts are in small but discernable pieces-not too fine.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a bowl by hand), beat together the butter, 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar, and the brown sugar on medium speed until just combined, about 30 seconds. Beat in the egg.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the boiling water and baking soda and then mix it into the butter mixture. Add the peanut-flour mixture and stir just until combined.
  • Place heaping teaspoons of the batter in mounds at least 2 1/2 inches (6 cm) apart on the prepared baking sheets. (You should be able to fit 8 per sheet.) Rap the pan a few times on the counter to flatten the mounds slightly, then sprinkle each with a very generous pinch of sea salt.
  • Bake, rotating the baking sheets midway during baking, until the cookies are evenly deep golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely, then use a thin metal spatula to transfer the cookies to a wire rack. Repeat to bake the remaining batter.
  • To serve, offer a few scoops of margarita sorbet with a few peanut crisps alongside.
  • Storage
  • The cookie batter can be refrigerated for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 1 month. The crisps can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in an airtight container.
  • tip
  • Make sure the lime zest is grated very finely so that its texture is barely noticeable in the sorbet. A rasp-style grater does the trick nicely, but if you don't own one, mince the zest with a chef's knife.

CHEWY PEANUT BUTTER CRISPS



Chewy Peanut Butter Crisps image

While out bopping around with friends, we stopped at her sister's house to drop something off. And there was this heavenly smell, and this warm, gooey pile of cookies laid out, and an invitation was quickly extended and accepted. "I don't really like them," she says. One bite later and a quick explanation from my friend -- "Anne prefers her cookies with a cake-like texture", and I could see why she might not like them. Me? I love my cookies chewy, and that's what these are!
