Recipe development chef, Joanie Simon stopped by to show us a delicious chocolate chip cookie recipe with a secret ingredient - Green Mountain Farms Greek Cream Cheese!
Here is the recipe from the show:
Recipe:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup Green Mountain Farms Greek Cream Cheese, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
8 oz chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350F
Combine the butter, Greek Cream Cheese, brown sugar, sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a bowl and cream together until smooth (recommended to use a stand mixer or electric hand mixer).
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt then add to the wet ingredients and mix until incorporated, but don't over-mix.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop golfball sized balls of dough and place them onto a cookie sheet, pressing them down with the palm of your hand slightly to flatten them a bit.
Bake at 350F for 13 - 15 minutes until slightly browned and baked through. *The cream cheese makes them a bit lighter than standard cookies, so anticipate them being a bit more white than brown.
Store in an airtight container or bag for up to 5 days.
