A Swedish food blogger who posts great recipes is Jennie at Kalasgott, and that is where I found this recipe for chocolate chip lavender cookies.
The combination of lavender and dark chocolate is phenomenal. You only need one teaspoon of dried lavender for the whole batch but it gives the cookies another dimension. Try these!
I have translated the recipe below.
Chocolate chip lavender cookies, makes 24-30
150g softened butter
375 ml caster sugar
1 tbp dried lavender
1 eggs
1 tsp vanilla sugar
1 tsp baking powder
125 ml cocoa
250 ml plain flour
100 g chopped dark chocolate
Beat the butter, sugar and lavender. Add the eggs one by one. Sift the dry ingredients intp a bowl and add to the butter mixture. Add the chopped chocolate. Roll into 24-30 balls, place them six at the time on baking parchment on a baking tray. Bake in 180C for 12 minutes. Leave to cool on the baking tray or a wire rack. Keep in an airtight container for about a week. They freeze well.
I do love the aromas of lavender in food, perfect for a recipe like this.
