My husband really likes flax seed, and this recipe is something I came up with just for him. It is actually an adaptation of a chocolate chip cookie recipe. However we've found that with this version, chocolate (much as I love it) just doesn't taste right. Butterscotch and flax together make a wonderful flavor! Note: The dough is very sticky. I use a 1 1/2 inch cookie scoop that pops the dough out. Also, don't leave them in the oven too long! Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/4 cup honey |
3/4 cup brown sugar |
2 large eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 1/3 cups flour |
1 cup ground flax seeds |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix |
1 cup butterscotch chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Cream together butter, honey, and brown sugar.
3. Add eggs and vanilla, beating at high speed for 60 seconds, or until fluffy.
4. Sift together flour, flax seed, baking soda, and pudding mix; add to creamed mixture.
5. Fold in butterscotch chips.
6. Drop onto parchment paper-lined cookie sheets about 1 inch apart.
7. Flatten slightly with a wet hand; (cookies will not flatten much more in oven).
8. Bake at 350 for about 7 minutes; cookies are done JUST when the tops no longer look wet.
