It's not hard to do without many of your favorite foods for just 8 days. We can give up the bagels, the pita, the pasta, the diet coke...but some (namely my hubby!) just can't give up the chocolate chip cookies! The great news here is that this Passover recipe doesn't taste like matzah like so many of your typical Pesach dessert recipes-they actually taste like delish chocolate chip cookies. So yummy that every year L says "these are better than your regular ones" and wants them for weeks after the 8 days are over! Not to mention that even virgin bakers can whip this up in 5 minutes and know that they will come out perfect!! Case in point-this recipe comes from a very old, very good family friend who I only ever knew to make hot dogs and mac & cheese, the from-the-box kind. When she started making these and shared the recipe with Mimi and I, we knew it was not only a winner but a keeper too! Chag Pesach Sameach-may this be the beginning of a wonderful spring for you and yours!!
INGREDIENTS
½ C margarine or butter (1 stick), softened (if you need pareve make sure you choose a Pesach pareve margarine)
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (if you can't find kosher l'pesach vanilla, you can easily omit)
1/3 cup potato starch
2/3 cup matzah cake meal
½ teaspoon kosher salt
8 oz. chocolate chips (the Pesach bags I found this year are 9 ounces and I used the whole bag!!)
DIRECTIONS
Cream together the margarine and sugar. Beat in the egg. Add the dry ingredients and combine well. Use a cookie scoop and place on cookie sheets lined with silpat or parchment paper.
Bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
1 batch=about 2 dozen ( I double and often triple it!!)
EAT AND ENJOY!
