CAROB CHIP COOKIES
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or
natural maple flavoring
12/3 cups whole wheat pastry
flour
2 teaspoons alumunium-free
baking powder
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/3 cup dried, unsweetened
coconut
3/4 cup carob chips
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare 2 cookie sheets by
greasing them with a bit of but-
ter. Since the cookies contain a
fair amount of butter them-
selves, each sheet only needs a
bit.
In a small saucepan, combine
the butter and honey. Heat gen-
tly to melt them together, then
remove from the heat; add vanil-
la.
Mix the remaining ingredients
in bowl and blend in the butter
mixture. Drop rounded spoonfuls
of cookie dough onto prepared
sheets, flattening each cookie
slightly. Leave room for spread-
ing.
If you bake two sheets at the
same time, use two oven racks
and rotate the sheets twice, so the
cookies on the bottom rack don't
burn. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, un-
til the cookies are firm and gold-
en. Place on a a wire rack for
cooling.
Yield: about 40 cookies. ❑
