For a really good pre harvest treat how about some Raspberry Chocolate Chip Cookies?
You will need
1 cup butter, softened
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup sugar
1 large box (5.1oz)instant vanilla pudding mix
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 ½ cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup fresh raspberries, halved
Here is how you make these cookies.
Cream the butter and sugars. Add the pudding mix and mix until well blended. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well.
Add the flour and baking soda and continue mixing.
Stir in the chocolate chips and then very gently fold in the raspberries.
Drop cookies by rounded teaspoonfuls or use a cookie scoop, into a greased cookie sheet or a high quality non-stick cookie sheet.
Bake for about ten minutes and enjoy!
