  • GALLETAS Cookies - As Featured ON NSN! - Submitted by Jaylee

    This recipe has been translated from Spanish to English

     

    1 Cup Powdered
    Sugar

    1/3 Cup Cocoa
    Powder

    2 Egg Whites

     

    Stir together
    and bake at 350 for 18 minutes

     

    Makes 8 Cookies

     

    Notes: Jaylee
    doubles the recipe each time in a bowl, however, she recommends the
    following:

    Use parchment
    paper for best results. Spoon the batter on a parchment lined baking sheet.
    Only bake about 6 cookies at a time on a baking sheet, because they are quite
    liquidy and spread out easily. Jaylee used 2 baking sheets in the oven at the
    same time, so she could bake 12 cookies at a time. Let them cool for quite a
    while, before carefully using a spatula to remove them from the parchment
    paper. 

  • THE COOKIES - Submitted by Lisa

    Ingredients:

    *1/2 cup butter
    *1/2 cup milk
    *2 cups sugar
    *3 cups rolled oats
    *1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon baking cocoa
    *1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    *pinch salt
    *1 cup shredded coconut (thinly shredded)

    Preparation:

    In a large pot, mix together butter, milk, and sugar, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add rolled oats, baking cocoa, vanilla, salt, and coconut. Mix together and spoon onto wax paper. Allow to cool to set. Yields 12-15 cookies.

    Both my brother and I had the same 4th grade teacher, who always used these cookies as part of her lessons each year. She would have the students take a 'field trip' to the grocery store, buy the ingredients to make large batches, team up to prepare cookies in class, do the math on cost to determine a pricing to make a profit, and sell them to other students at lunchtime. Just about everyone loved them. We still make them once in a while.
