Challenge 3–Keep dried cranberries away from me for the sake of all humanity.
Review: These tasted great. However, they were ugly. They were pale and didn’t look cooked through at all. I was slightly embarrassed. However, if you are making these just for your family or for someone who does not eat just with their eyes, they are great.
They are almost as pale as me. Almost.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix together 1/2 cup sugar and vegetable oil. Stir in the egg and vanilla until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder and salt and stir until combined. Mix in chocolate chips and cranberries. Make tablespoon sized balls and place on a parchment paper-lined or Silpat-covered cookie sheet.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
Makes around 20 pale cookies. Guess this is a time we needed butter for browning.
