@holidaycouture: Mabell's Christmas Kissed Cookie (Two Delicious Versions!) Welcome to a festive holiday favorite! This comprehensive recipe for Mabell's Christmas Kissed Cookie yields a dozen large, bakery-style cookies packed with cozy holiday cheer. This recipe features two distinct variations to suit your taste: the classic chocolate chip holiday version and the upgraded caramel-kissed version incorporating rich caramel chips for extra depth and sweetness. Yield: A dozen large cookies (12 servings) Prep time: 20 minutes Bake time: 12 minutes Ingredients: • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened • 1 cup packed light brown sugar • ½ cup granulated sugar • 2 large eggs • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour • 1 teaspoon baking soda • ½ teaspoon salt • Version 1 (Classic Chocolate Chip): ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips • Version 2 (Caramel Kissed): ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips AND ¾ cup caramel chips • ½ cup candy-coated red and green chocolate pieces Decorating Ingredients: • 1 cup vanilla buttercream frosting (divided) • Gel food coloring (red and green) • ¼ cup festive red and green sprinkles • 12 mini candy canes Instructions: * PREP: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper to ensure even baking and prevent sticking. * DOUGH: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, packed light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the pure vanilla extract. * MIX: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet butter mixture, stirring gently just until combined. * FOLD: Fold in your chosen mix-ins depending on the version you are making. For the classic version, fold in ¾ cup of semisweet chocolate chips and the red and green candy-coated pieces. For the caramel-kissed version, fold in ¾ cup of semisweet chocolate chips, ¾ cup of rich caramel chips, and the red and green candy-coated pieces. * BAKE: Scoop the cookie dough into 12 large balls (approximately 3 tablespoons each) and place them spaced evenly on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and set, while the centers remain wonderfully soft. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely. Decorating Instructions: Once the cookies have cooled completely, divide your vanilla buttercream frosting into two separate bowls. Tint one portion vibrant green and the other festive red using gel food coloring. Transfer the colored frostings into piping bags fitted with small tips. Pipe a charming green Christmas tree design and cheerful red swirls onto the top of each cookie. Before the frosting sets, press a mini candy cane into place, dust with festive red and green sprinkles, and add extra mini M&Ms to finish the whimsical decorated look. #christmas #holidaybaking #cookies #holidaycouture #bakingrecipes
