CHOCOLATE WALNUT COOKIES
This recipe is a classic and has always been well-received at the cookie swap. I measure out my dry ingredients on a piece of parchment paper and this makes it easier to add into the mixer. I also make large batches of the dough and keep it in the fridge during the holidays so I always have freshly baked cookies on hand when company drops in.

Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Finely chop 1/2 cup of the walnuts and set aside. Process the remaining 3/4 cup walnuts with 1/2 cup of the sugar in a food processor until very finely ground, about 1 minute. Add the butter and vanilla and process until smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the flour, cocoa powder and salt and process until most of the dough forms a ball and is completely combined. Scrape the dough into a bowl with a rubber spatula and fold in the chocolate chips and reserved chopped walnuts.
- Roll mounded teaspoons of the dough into 1-inch balls and space evenly apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake the cookies, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until cracked on top and mostly firm but still slightly springy when pressed, about 18 minutes (they will firm up out of the oven). Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes; you want them to be slightly warm for the first tossing in sugar.
- Meanwhile, put the remaining 3/4 cup sugar in a shallow bowl or pie plate. Toss the warm cookies very gently in the sugar until evenly coated. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes, then toss again in the sugar so they are very white. The cookies will keep in a little bit of extra sugar in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

HEALTHY WALNUT (OR CHOCOLATE) CRANBERRY OATMEAL CHEWY COOKIES
These are such unique cookies! These cookies become very thin when they cook, and the addition of brown rice syrup (better for you then sugar... has complex carbs to keep you fuller longer) makes the cookie very chewy and almost slightly sticky. You have never tasted anything like it!

Steps:
- In a dry saucepan on medium, toast the walnuts (if using) and oats together until browned and fragrant, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat margarine(at room temp) and applesauce with brown sugar until light and fluffy (with electric beaters).
- add egg whites, brown rice syrup, and vanilla and beat until smooth, about a minute.
- In a smaller bowl, combine flours, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix into creamed mixture. Stir in oats, walnuts (or chocolate chips), and craisins.
- Chill dough for 30 minutes.
- Drop dough on parchment paper-covered cookie sheet (dont flatten tops).
- Bake at 330° F 12-15 minutes or until spread out and very lightly browned. They will be flat and the tops will have small bubble pockets, and though they may look soft and not done, they are! Allow cookies to cool slightly then place cookies on cooling rack. Use a very good spatchula or else they will be tricky to get off the pan without breaking!
- Cookies will be quite delicate and slightly sticky (especially when hot), so when you store them, be sure their edges arn't touching eachother and use wax paper to line between the layers. ENJOY!

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before beginning, measure and prepare all ingredients and equipment. This will help ensure the baking process goes smoothly and efficiently.
- Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and create a smoother batter.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a lighter and more tender cookie.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown: Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help them to set and develop their full flavor.
