My friend, Elizabeth, made these adorable and hilarious cookies for brunch after the Race for the Cure a couple of weekends ago. A friend's mom is a Breast Cancer survivor and in celebration of her, we all joined a team to walk together. It was a gorgeous Sunday and we walked proud the whole 3.1 miles. It was inspiring and moving to see over 28,000 people participating in such a worthy cause. After all was said and done, the Kansas City event raised over 1.2 million dollars!
Here's to ta-tas everywhere!
This is a twist on my old Cowboy Cookie recipe that I grew up making. I thought white chocolate paired well with dried apricots, so I thought I would try it out.
INGREDIENTS
· 1 cup margarine/butter
· 1 cup sugar
· 1 cup brown sugar
· 2 eggs
· 1/2 tsp. salt
· 2 cups self-rising flour
· 1 package of white chocolate chips
· 3/4 cup of chopped dried apricots.
· 1 tsp. vanilla
· 2 cups oatsINSTRUCTIONS
· Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
· Cream sugars and margarine/butter
· Add eggs and mix well.
· Add remaining ingredients.
· Bake for about 9-11 minutes.I don't like to over-bake my cookies so I check them out around 9 minutes and if they are getting a bit golden around the edges, I take them out of the oven to cool because I like them moist and chewy. This recipe makes about 3-4 dozen cookies. Let me tell you...they are pretty tasty!Enjoy!
