COOKIE SWIRL C RECIPES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar with a hand mixer until light and fluffy.
• Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
• Add the flour, baking soda, and baking powder, and mix until the dough is crumbly, but holds together when squeezed.
• Split the base dough in half, add your desired mix-ins, and incorporate them fully.
• We used chocolate hazelnut spread and cocoa powder for one half and peanut butter for the other.
• Roll out each dough between two sheets of parchment paper until it’s ¼-inch (6-mm) thick. Chill both doughs for 30 minutes.
• Place one half of flavored dough on top of the other and start to roll up the doughs into a swirl. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge until solid, about 4 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Once chilled, unwrap the dough, slice into ½-inch (1 cm) thick coins, and place them on the baking sheet at least 2 inches (5 cm) apart, as the cookies will spread while baking.
• Bake the cookies for 10 minutes. Let cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Try additional combinations.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Combine cookie dough, brown sugar, baking chips and 1/4 cup almonds. Set aside. In a large saucepan, heat cherry pie filling over medium heat until bubbly. Remove from heat; stir in 1/4 teaspoon almond extract. Fold in raspberries. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish., Unroll crescent dough into a long rectangle; press perforations to seal. Drop small spoonfuls of cookie dough mixture over top; spread gently to cover. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut crosswise into 12 slices; arrange cut side up on cherry mixture., Bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Cool 10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine confectioners' sugar, remaining almond extract and enough milk to make a medium-thick glaze. Drizzle rolls with glaze; sprinkle with remaining toasted almonds.
