RHUBARB COOKIES



Rhubarb Cookies image

If you make one thing this rhubarb season, it needs to be these cookies. They are crunchy and salty on the outside and tender and chewy on the inside. They also have surprises like sweet white chocolate chips and crunchy chopped walnuts hidden in every bite. But the star of the show is the tangy, soft and beautifully pink rhubarb that is strewn throughout.

Time 2h30m

Yield 20 to 22 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg plus 1 large yolk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips (about 6 ounces)
1 cup walnut halves (about 4 ounces), roughly chopped
1 1/2 stalks rhubarb (about 4 ounces), chopped into 1/4-inch pieces
1 tablespoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Sift the flour, kosher salt, baking powder and baking soda together in a large bowl.
  • Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer (or using a stand mixer fitter with the paddle attachment) on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and yolk, then beat in the vanilla.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the dry ingredients and beat until well combined, about 1 minute. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts, then fold in the rhubarb. Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with reusable nonstick mats (or parchment).
  • Use a 1-ounce ice cream scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart (you should have about 10 cookies, roughly 1 1/2 ounces each, per baking sheet). Sprinkle the sea salt on top of the dough balls.
  • Bake, rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cookies 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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rhubarb. Look for firm, crisp stalks with deep red color. Avoid stalks that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Prepare the rhubarb properly. Wash the rhubarb stalks and cut them into 1-inch pieces. If the rhubarb is very tart, you can sprinkle it with sugar and let it sit for a few minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.

Conclusion:

Rhubarb cranberry cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. These cookies are made with fresh rhubarb, cranberries, and oats, and they have a sweet and tart flavor that is sure to please everyone. Whether you are looking for a snack, a dessert, or a gift, rhubarb cranberry cookies are a great option.
