Not sure where I found this recipe, but it's a fun recipe. Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter |
1 cup brown sugar |
1 egg |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 1/4 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1 tablespoon water |
1/4 cup peanut butter chips |
24 cashews |
Directions:
1. Cream together butter, brown sugar, egg and vanilla.
2. In a another bowl, combing flour, baking powder and salt. Blend into creamed mixture.
3. Separate dough into two pieces: 1/3 and 2/3.
4. Chocolate Dough: In a small bowl, mix together cocoa powder and baking soda. Combine with 1/3 of the dough. Work 1 tablespoon water into the chocolate dough. Form into two 10 logs.
5. Take the other 2/3 of the dough and divide into two pieces. On a floured surface, roll each piece into a 10 x 4 rectangle. Place chocolate dough in center. Mold vanilla dough around chocolate dough, forming a log. Repeat with other piece of vanilla dough.
6. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill 2-24 hours.
7. Heat oven to 350°F.
8. Cut dough into 1/8 slices. Lay two slices side-by-side on a cookie sheet. These are the owl eyes. Next, pinch the upper/outer corners - to resemble the horns or feather tufts that owls have at the top of their heads.
9. Next put a peanut butter chip in the center of each eye. Then add a cashew nose between the eyes.
10. Bake 8-10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
