My boys love Sweet’s chocolate orange and raspberry sticks. However, this year, we ended up with too many and my boys got a little tired of them.
I searched for recipes that I could use these chocolate sticks in and found this one. They are fan-freaking-tastic. Seriously, so good. This recipe is a keeper. I will probably be stocking up on these chocolate sticks every year from here on out just so I can make these cookies every Christmas.
We tried them in both the orange and raspberry flavors. I don’t always love the combination of orange and chocolate, but I loved these! Some liked the orange better, some liked the raspberry better, and some loved them both equally and couldn’t choose a favorite.
I will have to try the blueberry and cherry flavors next year!
You could also add these to your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe in place of the chocolate chips.
Sweet’s Candy Chocolate Stick Cookies
Ingredients:
3/4 granulated sugar
3/4 packed brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
18 sticks (or up to one full box) Sweet’s chocolate sticks, cut into 1/4” cubes
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Cream sugars and butter together in a large bowl. Add vanilla and egg and mix until combined and smooth.
Mix in flour, baking soda, and salt (dough will be stiff).
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 8-10 minutes, or until light brown (centers will be soft).
Cool slightly on cookie sheet (for 5-10 minutes). Move to wire cooling rack until cooled completely.
If cookies have spread, or are irregular in shape, you can shape them with a round top glass or bowl. Place glass or bowl over cookies and swirl around in a circular pattern to smooth and round the edges of the cookie.
