Baking with Duck Eggs - The Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies - Recipe
Jeff's specialty is chocolate chip cookies. He makes the perfect cookie with a soft middle and crispy sides. His secret? He uses crisco gently heated. Not enough heat to turn it intoa a liquid, but nice and soft; about 30-50 seconds in the microwave. Then he mixes the dough by hand. This time 'round I talked him into using a duck egg. (For more about my recent foray into duck eggs along with ideas and recipe click here.) He used one duck egg in place of two chicken eggs. These may be the best chocolate chip cookies ever. The extra protien and fat in duck eggs is supposed to make them extra good for baking. I think I'm a convert. I had three chocolate chip cookies for a snack after work with a cup of tea. They were good. I'm sad they are gone. If you want to try them here's Jeff's recipe: The Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies - Made with Duck Eggs 2 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda1 teaspoon salt 1 cup butter flavored crisco 3/4 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 duck egg 2 cups (12-oz. pkg.)
