Santa may visit twice this year if you have these mouthwatering cookies sitting out for him.<\/p>\n
Do you remember the old Neiman Marcus cookie recipe? I’m old, so I do! You can read about it online, but the urban legend goes like this: a woman requested a cookie recipe from the department store and was told it would cost her “two fifty”. She had them charge her card, only to find they meant $250. Outraged, she retaliated by sharing the recipe far and wide.<\/p>\n
I’ve seen many recipe variations, but the copy I had (way back when) called for ground oatmeal, grated chocolate, and macadamia nuts. I’m happy to add the nuts, but simplified things by skipping the grinding and grating. (Grating chocolate is not<\/em> fun.) I’ve tweaked the recipe over the years until it looks very little like the original, but it’s OH SO GOOD.<\/p>\n The baked cookies are slightly shiny on top, like a brownie, but have a chewy texture. Make sure not to overbake them or they’ll get crunchy. They’re actually pretty tasty that way, too . . . but better slightly soft.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Beat the butter until creamy, then add both sugars and beat again!<\/p><\/div>\n Add eggs and vanilla, and beat until mixture lightens and is fluffy<\/p><\/div>\n Slowly add melted chocolate. Mix until combined.<\/p><\/div>\n Add flour, oatmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt<\/p><\/div>\n Mix in chocolate chips and macadamia nuts. Ready to bake!<\/p><\/div>\n Place large scoops of dough at least 1 1\/2 inches apart. Bake!<\/p><\/div>\n I used pretty big scoops – about 2 tablespoons. If you make them smaller, you might want to deduct a minute from the baking time.<\/p><\/div>\n Baked.<\/p><\/div>\n Lorinda<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Santa may visit twice this year if you have these mouthwatering cookies sitting out for him.
