HARD BOILED EGG CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

What are YOU doing with your left over hard boiled eggs?

A) Your kids are using them as ammunition in their latest backyard battle.
B) Chopping them up and putting them in your chocolate chip cookies.
C) What hard boiled eggs? You still haven’t found the ones you hid back in 2005.

Over here it’s always a little of A)…
…but today it’s B)

A while ago my friend Brittany told me I needed to try this out. Instead of placing raw eggs in cookie you can actually chop up hard boiled eggs really fine and use them in your dough.
For some reason the idea of it initially revolted me. But seriously what’s the big deal? So you cook the eggs before you put them in the cookies.
The result? A super moist and soft cookie. Europeans have been using this method for years.

They may even be in contention for my number one favorite cookie.

Note – you do need a food processor for this recipe.

HOW TO MAKE THESE

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Combine flour, butter, salt, and baking soda in a food processor and process until mixture is the texture of small crumbs.
  3. Add sugars, vanilla, and boiled eggs. Pulse again until mixture comes together.
  4. Add chocolate chips and combine by hand using a wooden spoon or clean hands. Egg whites may still be visible in the dough but will disappear as the cookies bake.
  5. Make golf ball sized balls of cookie dough and place them on parchment lined baking sheets. Flatten balls of dough slightly with your hand.
  6. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly browned.
  7. Remove cookies from oven and let them sit on the cookie sheet for 3-5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine flour, butter, salt, and baking soda in a food processor and process until mixture is the texture of small crumbs.
  • Add sugars, vanilla, and boiled eggs. Pulse again until mixture comes together. As the dough sits the moisture will bring the dough together but it will be dry at first.
  • Add chocolate chips and combine by hand using a wooden spoon or clean hands. Egg whites may still be visible in the dough but will disappear as the cookies bake.
  • Make golf ball sized balls of cookie dough and place them on the baking sheets. Flatten balls of dough slightly with your hand.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly browned.
  • Remove cookies from oven and let them sit on the cookie sheet for 3-5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
