The dark sugar and the dark cocoa make this health cookie taste just like Americas favorite candy bar! |
This recipe is taken from the HEATH crinkle package. I wasn't sure how it would turn out because, well, I like a little more "umpf" in my flavors but it came out pleasingly tasty.
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 1/2 cup dutch cocoa (you can remove 1 tbsp of the dutch and replace it with 1 tbsp of black cocoa for a deeper cocoa look at taste)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 sticks room temperature butter
- 12 tablespoons white sugar
- 6 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 tsp good vanilla extract
- 2 eggs- room temperature
- 1 whole package of heath bits
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder (s), baking soda and salt.
- Cream the butter until light and fluffy.
- Add in the sugars and cream for 2 minutes.
- Add in the vanilla extract and mix.
- Incorporate eggs, one at a time, until incorporated.
- Using 1/2 cup measures, add in the flour (dry goods).
- Finish by adding in the Heath bits.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place 1 tbsp (you can if you like make them into balls) dough on parchment paper until your tray is full.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes- RECOMMENDED that you under bake slightly.
- For a holiday look, roll in sugar, finishing sugar or clear sprinkles before baking.
