Garlic Chocolate Chip Cookies

Garlic Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients


10 fresh garlic cloves

water, boiling

1/2 cup pure maple syrup

1 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup light brown sugar

3/4 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

2 1/2 cups flour

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 1/4 cups chocolate chips

Directions

1 Drop garlic cloves into boiling water for about 5 minutes until tender; peel cloves and chop, then soak in maple syrup for 20 to 30 minutes.

2 While cloves are soaking, cream together the butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla until light and fluffy.

3 Combine the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt, then add to cream mixture; stir the chocolate chips into the mixture (you can add a 1/2 cup of chopped nuts at this time, if you like).

4 Pour the garlic and syrup through a strainer, draining the syrup, and add the chopped cloves to cookie batter; stir well.

5 Drop the cookie batter by tablespoons onto an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.

6 Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly browned (careful not to overcook!).

7 Remove from oven and cool on racks.

8 Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
 
REVIEW:
Surprisingly enough... These were ok.  You didn't really get any garlic flavor and most people I tried them on I didn't tell them they were garlic chocolate chip cookies.  When I did they didn't want anymore.  They weren't the best chocolate chip cookies in the world. A bit dry and too crumbly for my taste.  It also took alot of prep time.  Easier just making regular cookies. But if you want a little shock value that really doesn't do too much to the over all taste so you don't have to throw out a huge amount of cookies then try this recipe.  THANKS RECIPEZARR
