We decided on cookies so I looked for an easy recipe that didn't require any chilling time. The result is my "AABCD" (Applesauce, Almond Brown Sugar Cookie Drops). Cheesy I know, but maybe it'll stick in your mind.....
This recipe makes about 2 dozen cookies and can easily be doubled. The result is a really light cookie that really tastes delicious.
Ingredients:
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup applesauce
1 egg
1-3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1-1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 cup almonds, finely chopped (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400F.
2. Beat brown sugar, butter, applesauce and egg in the stand mixer on medium speed.
3. Meanwhile in a small bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Add it to the wet ingredients and stir with a spatula.
4. Add in the almonds (I ground them up in my food chopper) and stir again.
5. Drop dough by the tablespoonful about 2" apart on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Bake 9-11 minutes or until almost no indentation is left when touched in the centre. Cool for a couple of minutes then remove to a cookie sheet to continue cooling.
