Christmas Treats: Chocolate Cookie Recipe

By Mike Jackson

Every treat called a cookie is not what we would usually view as a cookie. Several are added extras to our cookies that taste very good (like Butterfinger pieces), whereas others formulate the fundamental shape or size of cookies but do not feature the traditional ingredients of a cookie the least bit. An enjoyable chocolate cookie recipe is not really a cookie, but tastes fantastic and is an outstanding substitute for conventional turtle cookies.

For one of the most fun recipes, only three simple ingredients are needed. In fact, you may have at least one in your pantry right now. You need pretzel rings or twists, caramel chocolate kisses, and pecan halves. Sounds very simple, right?

Start by preheating your oven to at least 300 degrees. Lay your pretzels on a non-greased non-stick cookie sheet in a single layer, as many as you want, up to a full sheet. Then, set a kiss on top of each pretzel.

Bake this mixture until the chocolate is spongy, but not totally softened. To finish, draw the sheet from your oven and complement the mixture by topping it with the pecan halves on the pliable chocolate.

There are a broad range of Hershey's kisses and kinds of nuts that are suitable for this formula, and it is an enjoyable means of creating a very unique kind of delicacy on your holiday platter. Jumble up different types until you find your preference, or produce new mixtures of treats that go well with your individual appetite.

One bag of kisses will make a lot of these turtle cookies, up to eighty if you do not start munching the kisses while you are baking the treats. It is very tempting to snack as you go. Eighty cookies will go a long way on a party platter, but be sure and make more if you are hoping for them to last, because they will go fast. - 30289
