DESPERATION COOKIES

I actually got this recipe from a mystery book. It has been a huge hit in my family and my classroom because of the many variations possible. I have done a ton of different combos: cranberries, white morsels, and almonds; milk chocolate, dark chocolate, walnuts; cinnamon morsels, white morsels, and pecans; mint morsels and rice crispies; multiple colored raisins, various chocolate morsels, etc. Almost all combos come out if you give a little thought to flavors and textures. Also, for people who do not like "nuts" of any type; You can replace the 2 cups of "nuts" with rice crispy cereal. It adds bulk but does not alter the flavor much. I have also used a little oatmeal for filler. These are a GREAT pantry clean out cookie after the holidays.

DESPERATION COOKIES

I love these cookies! They are sooo good & always come out perfectly done. Evryone I've ever made them for compliments them. (The only problem is it makes 10 dozen, althought I guess that could be a good thing....) I got this recipe from Joanne Fluke's book Peach Cobbler Murder.

FORGOTTEN COOKIES

These meringues are crispy on the outside and marshmallow-y on the inside, with bits of chocolate throughout. The best part of this recipe is that you turn off the heat once the cookies go in the oven, so you can truly forget about them until the morning. A spring-loaded ice cream scoop makes fast work of forming the meringues and you can use any size you like.

Steps:

  • Position 2 oven racks in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Beat the egg whites and salt in a large bowl on medium speed until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and increase the speed to medium high. Beat in the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, then add the vanilla extract. Continue beating until the meringue is thick, glossy and holds stiff peaks, about 6 minutes. Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula.
  • Using a spring-loaded ice-cream scoop (or 2 spoons, using one to nudge the meringue off the other), scoop the meringue into mounds about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle each cookie with a few more chocolate chips.
  • Put the baking sheets in the oven, then immediately turn off the oven. Let the meringues stand in the oven until dry, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

3 large egg whites, at room temperature
Pinch of fine salt
3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup superfine sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups mini semisweet chocolate chips, plus more for garnish

KRINGLE (COOKIES)

The little Norwegian store here makes these by the dozens. They either dunk them in their coffee or butter them on the bottom to eat them. Yum! (Yield depends on how thick and or big you make them, so judge accordingly).

CLASSIC FORGOTTEN COOKIES WITH VARIATIONS - THE SPRUCE EATS
The name "forgotten cookies" comes from the baking process: You "forget" about the cookies and leave them in the oven overnight—after turning the oven off, of course. The cookies continue to bake in the oven as it slowly cools down. The most magical part of the process (especially when baking with children) is waking up to an oven full of treats.
