Sḵwálwen Botanicals – Changing the Face of Skincare
Our resident mother-daughter culinistas are back with two recipes for taking an oft-baked treat to transcendent new heights
Try baking your chocolate chip cookies with olive oil instead of butter
My mother Helen and I have two different takes on this tried-and true classic.
Though we use the same basic steps and ingredients, Mama has her way of cooking and I have mine.
Mama’s take: The standard stuff but with olive oil instead of butter, and the optional splash of crushed walnuts.
Ingredients
*Use only quality olive oil for this recipe. Quality makes the difference in taste!
Instructions
Anastasia’s twist: Same ingredients, but add a banana and a dollop of Nutella—other than that, it’s just like Mama used to make!
Makes about 30 cookies
