Double Chocolate Amaz!n™ Cookies

We’re doing chocolate chip cookies one better: we doubled the chocolate and added marshmallows, prunes, and almonds. And there’s an optional bonus: you can pre-soak the prunes in a splash brandy for extra depth and complexity.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Sunsweet® Amaz!n™ Diced Prunes
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • Cooking spray
  • 3 Tbsp brandy (optional)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 egg, large
  • 1 1/2 tsp almond extract
  • 3/4 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F.

 

Soak Amaz!n Prunes™ in brandy for 5 minutes if desired; strain and set aside. Melt semi-sweet chocolate chips in microwave or in a bowl set over boiling water. Cool for 5 minutes.

 

With an electric mixer, beat butter and sugars in a large bowl until light and well mixed. Add egg, almond and vanilla extracts; mix until smooth. Beat melted chocolate into butter mixture until incorporated.

 

In a separate bowl sift together flour, baking soda and salt and stir into chocolate mixture. Stir in white chocolate chips, marshmallows and Amaz!n Prunes™. Spray 2 baking sheets with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Drop cookie dough in large spoonfuls onto baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.

 

Bake for 12 minutes or until tops of cookies feel slightly firm when touched. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 10 minutes. With a spatula, carefully transfer cookies to a wire rack and cool completely.
