Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunchy Melt-In-Your-Mouth Cookies by Alice Medrich

By Alice Medrich
Artisan - 2010

Tangy and sweet! I thought this recipe was simple and delicious. The crunch of cornmeal in the crust is a nice change from the usual shortbread and it was indeed lighter. The filling was lemon-y and bright without being overly sour or cloyingly sweet. Next time I will cook them about 2 minutes less, after the minimum 15 minutes they did not have much "jiggle" as the author describes. They were easy to slice and held together well.

These were tasty and moist without being gooey (as blondies sometimes are). Very simple to make but I may work the chocolate in after the butter has cooled. I added mine while the butter/sugar mixture was still slightly warm and the chocolate chunks melted, making them more of a "dirty blonde(i)".

These are very tasty with just the right amount of crunch and chew. Quick and easy recipe. I cooked mine about 18-20 minutes to retain the chewy interior. Next time I may cut the powdered sugar by 1/3 cup (I saw other recipes w/ less so it should work).
