Cappuccino Walnut Cookies Food

CAPPUCCINO WALNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
• With an electric mixer or by hand, cream together the butter, sugar and light brown sugar. Beat in the corn syrup and vinegar, then the egg and vanilla; mixture may appear slightly lumpy. Add salt, baking soda and flour, and mix until smooth. Add cappuccino chips and walnuts, and fold in well.
• Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop up 2 tablespoons of dough at a time, and shape into mounds about 2 inches apart on baking sheet. (Dough will probably have to be baked in 2 batches.) Bake each batch, turning sheet halfway through cooking. For chewy cookies, bake till lightly bronzed but still soft at center, about 10 minutes; for crisper cookies, bake 2 minutes longer.
• Cool cookies on baking sheet 3 to 5 minutes before transferring carefully to a wire rack to finish cooling. Store in an airtight container.

POLVORONES: GROUND WALNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Using an electric mixer, beat the butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and beat until well blended. Beat in the flour, and then the ground and chopped walnuts. Divide the dough in half, forming each half into a ball. Wrap separately in plastic and chill until cold, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Working with half of the chilled dough at a time while keeping the rest in the fridge, roll the dough by 2 teaspoonfuls between your palms into balls. Arrange the balls on a large baking sheet, spacing them 1/2-inch apart.
• Bake the cookies until golden brown on the bottom and just pale golden on top, about 18 minutes. Cool the cookies for 5 minutes on the baking sheet. Toss the warm cookies in the powdered sugar. Transfer the sugar-coated cookies to a rack to cool completely. (The cookies can be prepared 2 days ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature). Sift additional powdered sugar over the cookies, if desired, before serving.

CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Sift the flour, kosher salt, baking powder and baking soda together into a large bowl.
• Beat the butter and brown sugar in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. (Use the paddle attachment for a stand mixer.) Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the dry ingredients and beat until combined. Fold in the chocolate chunks and walnuts by hand.
• Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Use a 2-ounce ice cream scoop to scoop half the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart (you should have about 8 cookies, roughly 3 1/2-ounces each, per baking sheet). Sprinkle the flaky sea salt on top of the dough balls.
• Bake, rotating the pans from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 18 to 20 minutes. Let them cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
