Lavender cookies
Just tried baking cookies with the lavender that I bought from our recent visit to a lavender farm. Only certain types of lavender can be used for cooking so you have to make sure you have the one of the right ones (Egerton Blue, Munstead, Hidcote or English Lavender). These are quite yummy! The lavender gives the cookies a really nice scent.
INGREDIENTS:
5/8 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon lavender flowers
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
METHOD:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
2. Cream together the butter and sugar. Beat the egg, and blend into the butter and sugar. Mix in the lavender flowers and the flour. Drop batter by teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheets.
3. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Remove cookies to cooling racks.
