Booze it up Nut Butter Cookies
June 8, 2008 at 4:12 pm | In recipe |YUM! there’s just no other way to say it.
adapted from the Crispy Peanut Butter Cookies from VWAV
for 4 biiiiig cookies
wet:
2 1/2 T grapeseed oil
1/4 cup turbinado sugar
1/2 cup mix of chunky natural peanut butter and natural cashew/macadamia nut butter
1 t pure vanilla extract
4 T Kahlúa
dry:
1/2 T cornstarch
1/4 cup brown rice flour [spooned and leveled]
1/4 cup light spelt flour [spooned and leveled]
1/4 t baking powder
pinch fine sea salt
handful chocolate chips to decorate the cookies, optional
preheat oven to 350F. line cookie sheet with parchment paper or Silpat.
in a medium bowl, whisk together wet ingredients until emulsified.
add dry ingredients [except chocolate chips], stir until well combined.
separate dough into 4 equal portions. flatten on prepared cookie sheet: the cookies don’t spread much while baking. decorate with a fork pattern if desired. press optional chocolate chips on top.
bake for 13 minutes or until they get nicely colored on the edges. leave on cookie sheet for at least 15 minutes before carefully transferring to cooling rack.

What a great recipe. Are these gluten free? (I have a friend with a gluten allergy that would love these. :D)

Oh my! I think I’ve died and gone to cookie heaven. These have my three favorite things — chocolate, nut butter, and alcohol! Sweet!

y’all deserve cookies.
Sophie: some people who eat gluten-free foods tolerate spelt, but not everyone does. you might want to check with your friend first!

Wow, those cookies look extraordinary! Now I’m really craving cookies. :)
Yup, that place mat is from Target. I saw it and I knew I had to get it. I only bought one though. I really need to go back and get a few more.

Yummay. I might make these tomorrow, as my Dad mentioned he would like some peanut-y cookies with maybe some chocolate thrown in. Perfect!

Ooh, these sound awesome. I’ll have to try the rice/spelt flour combination next time I make those cookies.
