This Aromatherapy Foods™ recipe made with pure essential oils makes very flat, crispy chocolate chip cookies. They will spread a lot on the pan while baking. If you enjoy cookie pieces these cookies are ideal for cutting into bite-sized pieces before they cool. Or you can remove them immediately from the baking sheet and allow to finish cooling on a rack.
Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Ingredients
Half pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus some for baking sheet
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 - 6 drops pure organic peppermint essential oil
3 cups all-purpose pastry flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 - 2 cups chocolate chips
Preparation and Baking Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment; set aside.
In small bowl, cream butter until smooth, then add sugars, and beat until smooth. Beat in eggs, vanilla and peppermint oil.
In a large bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Slowly stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips.
Drop 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie onto baking sheet; space dough 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake until golden, 8-10 minutes. Remove cookies immediately and allow to cool. Makes sixty 3-inch cookies.
PLEASE NOTE: There are many cheap, synthetic copies of aromatic oils, but these are not recommended for cooking. For best flavors and results purchase the highest quality oils you can possibly find. Use organically grown and wild crafted essential oils that have been tested for purity and are pesticide free.
