Cashew Butter Cookies image

We love this soft, flavorful cookie! Can't find cashew butter? No problem, you can make your own! Use a 14 oz can of cashews and 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Blend in a food processor until you get the consistancy of butter. Yum!!

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 c real butter, softened
1/2 c cashew butter, homemade or commercially made (if commercially made you may omit salt)
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c light brown sugar
1 tsp real vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 c all purpose, unbleached flour

Steps:

  • 1. Cream butters and sugars together thoroughly.
  • 2. Add vanilla and egg mixing completely into creamed mixture. Then add salt (if using) and baking soda. I find that these items mix more completely if added to wet ingredients.
  • 3. Add flour 1/2 cup at a time mixing thoroughly with each addition. Scoop onto cookie sheets spacing apart because they will spread.
  • 4. Bake at 375 degrees for 9-10 minutes for a soft cookie. If you prefer a more crisp, slightly darker cookie you may bake up to 12 minutes.
