Since I can't taste and smell I can't give you my personal recomendation. I can tell you about the texture. The texture is very nice. Chewy and moist. I am going to drizzle some chocolate on a few and frost some with a cream cheese frosting just for some variety. Buttermilk Sugar Cookies
2 cups of sugar
1 cup shortening or 1 cup of butter (I used butter flavored crisco)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon soda
1 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups plain flour
dash of nutmeg or cinnamon (optional) (I used a heavy dash of nutmeg)
Blend and mix all ingredients well. Drop onto cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes at 375 degrees.
I would love it if you would leave a comment or a recipe for anything with buttermilk in it. LOL
Mmm the cookies sound delish. Your grandson is sooooo precious! I'm adding myself as a follower. Feel free to do the same. Rosie
ReplyDeleteHi Jeanette! Your cookies sound good! My Daddy always loved buttermilk, but I never could drink it straight!
ReplyDeleteHere's an old Weight Watchers recipe for dessert:
2 cups lite Coolwhip
2 cups berries (I like strawberries)
2 cups buttermilk
1 package sugar free vanilla instant pudding
Mix buttermilk and pudding mix together. Fold in Coolwhip and berries.
That's it! I love it! Let me know if you try it! Have a great week!...Debbie
Yummy! I love the way you describe the texture! It is a part of the taste sense that we just never give enough due! Dee Dee

ReplyDeleteThey sound good. Sorry, no help on recipes using buttermilk.
ReplyDeleteYour grandson is precious.
Mmmmm, I bet the buttermilk gives those cookies a wonderful flavor! I buy powdered buttermilk that you keep in the fridge. I can never use a whole carton! My grandmother used to make cornbread and then pour buttermilk over it. She loved it. Me, not so much :)
