Tequila Cookies
Posted by Celine on September 6, 2007
tequila cookies, since heeze asked for something made with tequila. [sidenote: I promise I'm done with alcohol-baking for a little bit.]
wanna be daring? add 1 t or more of chopped jalapeño bits!
3 T chopped dried cranberries
3 T tequila
1 T fresh lime juice
1 T triple sec
1 t lime zest
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup all purpose flour [just scoop and level, no need to spoon]
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour [just scoop and level, no need to spoon]
2 t Ener-g egg replacer powder [NO water!] [you can use cornstarch if you can’t find Ener-g]
1/4 heaping t sea salt
1/2 t baking powder
3 T plain soy milk [or other milk alternative]
3 T safflower oil or other mild flavored oil
preheat oven to 350F. line your cookie sheet with parchment paper or Silpat.
in a large bowl, place flours, sugars, egg replacer powder [or cornstarch], salt, baking powder, and whisk to mix well. pour in oil, soy milk, and cranberries/lime/tequila mixture. stir until well combined.
place about 2-3 T worth of cookie dough onto your sheet. you can make 6 large cookies or 8 medium ones.
flatten a bit, as these do not spread much while baking.
bake for 18 minutes or until set and lightly golden brown.
let cool on sheet for a few minutes before placing on cooling rack.
makes 6-8 cookies.

So many cookie recipes, so little time. Those look great too and I especially love that they are made with cranberries and not raisins. Arggggggg, which cookie recipe to try this weekend?…

I only like golden raisins right now. and even, the less of them I see, the better I feel.
there’s a tee on threadless.com on which it’s written something like
“keep your raisins off my cookie” or something like that
I LOVE IT!

I hope they make it to you today, VeggieGirl! keep in mind they were mailed on Tuesday after a holiday, and you know how USPS can be taking it easy after having days off so as not to, you know, twist an ankle or something. ;p

Yum yum yum!
Unluckily, I’ve promised my boy to bake only on occasions (like, Sundays or his teaching me what to do with C or TurboPascal) now that I’ve got _programming_ to learn (what the heck?!). This doesn’t mean I don’t spend twice as much time salivating over your gorgeous recipes, though.

baaaaaaaaah! I’m sorry to hear this, Rusva. I would feel terribly frustrated if I didn’t get to bake at least every other day. :(

Daaaaamn girl, you’re getting crazy with the cookies!
September 6, 2007 at 11:34 pm
gaaah, with my cookie addiction, not being able to bake for the last 5 days or so has been terrible :( stupid school! haha. jalapeno would be an interesting addition.

Jalapeno - sorry, I proofread for a living!

Sorry to say “atxvegn” but our dear Celine wrote it correctly…Spanish is my first language.

I think atxvegn was catching her typo, Mish, not saying that I made one. no worries either way!
