CASHEW BUTTER COOKIES



Cashew Butter Cookies image

We love this soft, flavorful cookie! Can't find cashew butter? No problem, you can make your own! Use a 14 oz can of cashews and 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Blend in a food processor until you get the consistancy of butter. Yum!!

Provided by Shelley Young

Categories     Cookies

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 c real butter, softened
1/2 c cashew butter, homemade or commercially made (if commercially made you may omit salt)
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c light brown sugar
1 tsp real vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 c all purpose, unbleached flour

Steps:

  • 1. Cream butters and sugars together thoroughly.
  • 2. Add vanilla and egg mixing completely into creamed mixture. Then add salt (if using) and baking soda. I find that these items mix more completely if added to wet ingredients.
  • 3. Add flour 1/2 cup at a time mixing thoroughly with each addition. Scoop onto cookie sheets spacing apart because they will spread.
  • 4. Bake at 375 degrees for 9-10 minutes for a soft cookie. If you prefer a more crisp, slightly darker cookie you may bake up to 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • For a richer cashew flavor, toast the cashews before making the butter.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender to make the cashew butter. Just be sure to blend it until it is very smooth.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little bit of milk or water. If the dough is too wet, add a little bit more flour.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just golden brown around the edges. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

Cashew butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, and they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. With their rich cashew flavor and chewy texture, these cookies are sure to be a favorite. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give cashew butter cookies a try!
