Garam Masala
Cookies
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 heaping teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons garam masala
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, one
softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
Mix flour, baking soda, salt, garam masala,
and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
In a sauce pan, heat 1 stick of butter over
medium high heat until completely melted.
Keep cooking the butter until it turns a rich
golden brown color and begins to take on a
warm, nutty smell. This may take up to 6 or 7
minutes. Be careful not to burn your butter!
Pour into a heat resistant bowl and set aside
for 10-15 minutes.
In another bowl mix brown sugar, granulated
sugar, and softened stick of butter with an
electric mixer, adding cooled browned butter
gradually until completely combined. Add
vanilla. Add eggs one at a time, blend until
creamy. Slowly add flour mixture and mix,
scraping the sides of the bowl to ensure even
distribution throughout the dough.
Drop rounded teaspoons of dough on to an
ungreased cookie sheet 2 inches apart and
bake by selecting the menu. Don’t overbake
these cookies – they should look almost
underdone when you take them out of the
oven. Set on wire racks to cool for 5 minutes,
then remove from cookie sheet to cool
completely.
