RFCJ RECIPE ARCHIVE
Posted by : Ruth Heiges Millionaire Cookies - pareve
This recipe by Rosalyn F. Manesse on the Jewish Communication Network web site strikes me as a not-wasteful use of honey for Rosh Hashanah, with ingredients which cover the major food groups (chocolate, peanut butter, sugar ...). ;-) It doesn't measure up to my criteria, though, for time usefully spent (i.e., dropping dough from teaspoons onto a cookie sheet). I'm sure these can be prepared as bar cookies by baking in a pan for about 20 minutes. If I try the recipe later this week, I'll report back on the experiment. Ruth MILLIONAIRE COOKIES (Parve) "I call these cookies Millionaire because they have everything--honey, peanut butter and are loaded with chocolate chips! They are easy to make. I buy a brand of peanut butter that is pure and has no sugar or fillers added. Be careful when buying chocolate chips because many varieties are dairy." --Rosalyn F. Manesse Nonstick cooking spray (optional) 1 cup peanut butter, chunk style 1/2 cup margarine (at room temperature) 1/2 cup sugar 3/4 cup honey 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted 1 teaspoon baking soda 12 ounce package chocolate chips (2 cups) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or grease cookie sheets. Cream together the peanut butter, margarine, sugar. Add honey. Beat in egg and vanilla. Beat well. Stir in flour and baking soda. Fold in chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls unto cookie sheets and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Watch cookies closely, they brown quickly. Cool on racks. Makes approximately 8 dozen. May be wrapped well and frozen.
