Description

Ordinary cookies can be spiced up with a little whiskey. The liquor evaporates but they are left with the whiskey flavor. These should probably be considered an adult treat.

Ingredients

• 1/2 c. butter, at room temperature
• 1 1/2 c. sugar
• 1/2 c. cocoa powder
• 2 eggs, at room temperature
• 1 t. vanilla extract
• 1/2 c. Crown Royal or Crown Royal Maple (or preferred whiskey)
• 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
• 1/2 t. baking soda
• 1/2 t. salt
• mini chocolate chips, if desired

Steps

1. Let the butter and eggs sit out to room temperature, for about 45 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
3. Cream butter, sugar and cocoa with a hand mixer on low speed. With mixer on low speed, add 1 egg at a time. Add vanilla. Mix in the Crown Royal.
