List of Ingredients
5 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
4 sticks butter (one pound)
1 cup white sugar
2 cups brown sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 eggs
Combine flour, salt, and baking soda in a bowl and set aside. Melt the pound of butter in a saucepan. Add sugars and vanilla to the melted butter and stir thoroughly. Add eggs and stir until well blended. Combine the dry ingredients and the butter mixture. Stir until well mixed. Kent says a secret to his great cookies is to let this batter sit, covered, in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. From this one batter, you can make three different kinds of cookies: Ginger, Chocolate Chip, and White Chocolate Macadamia Nut.
Ginger Cookies
To the pre-made batter add: 2 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp cardamom, 12 tsp dry ginger, and 3 cups crystalized ginger. Combine well, drop by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
To the pre-made batter add: 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips, 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 2 cups chopped pecans. Combine well, drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies
To the pre-made batter add: 2 cups macadamia nuts chopped into small and medium chunks (use a food processor if you have one), 2 cups white chocolate chips or chunks. Combine well, drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
NOTE: The amount of ingredients listed above for each cookie recipe are for when you are using the entire batter to make just one type of cookie. If you would like to make all three cookies from one recipe of batter, make sure than you cut the amount of ingredients for each cookie recipe by about 1/3. That is how we did it when we prepared these three cookie recipes on the show.
