Caballero Cookies Recipes

CABALLERO COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease two baking sheets, or line them with parchment paper.
• Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until creamy.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, soda, cinnamon, ground coffee, salt and cayenne. Add the dry mixture to the liquid mixture. Stir until well combined. Stir in the oats, both chocolates, and the pecans.
• Working in batches, form the dough into walnut-size balls (if the dough is too soft, you can place it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes), then place the dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake, one sheet at a time, for 11 - 14 minutes, or until flattened, lightly browned and set. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes; then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling. Repeat for the remaining cookie dough.

• Onto ungreased cookie sheets, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown (centers will be soft). Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store covered in airtight container.
