Henry's first trip to Frank |
Enough about our ahhhmazing lunch. Now to why my cookies are pink. A while back I found this recipe for beet chocolate chip cookies. That's right people BEETS! So I found the recipe over at beantownbaker and thought I would try them out. Let me just say they are way better than I expected. Not too sweet but sweet enough. I made a few slight changes.
ingredients:
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup shredded raw beets
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 Tbsp water
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup shredded raw beets
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 Tbsp water
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
directions:
Combine all dry ingredients and stir.
In a food processor, pulse the shredded beets for a few second 5 times. Add the oil, vanilla, and water and process again. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the sugar to the food processor and pulse until completely combined. The mixture will be very liquidy.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and the beet mixture. Mix to combine.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop by tablespoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 min at 350.
So give them a try. Yes, they do have beets in them but you can't tell. I've already ate three and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. Well maybe after five. I need to learn a little self control. Enjoy!
