Devil Drop Cookies
Yields: 4 dozen

Ingredients:
½ cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 (one-ounce) squares chocolate, melted
2 cups flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
2 ¾ cups sour cream
½ cup chopped walnuts

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Prepare cookie sheet with non-stick spray and set aside.  In large mixing bowl cream butter and sugar with electric mixer until smooth.  Add one egg, vanilla and melted chocolate, mix until blended.  Sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Add flour mixture gradually while alternating with sour cream and walnuts.  Place cookies on greased tray.  Bake 10 minutes if you are making quarter size cookies and 13 minutes for larger cookies.  Cool on wire rack. `

Serving:  40 small cookies
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 13 minutes
Difficulty: Easy

Notes from Paula Deen’s Test Kitchen: Devil Drop Cookies are the consistency of a cake.  Tip for making Devil Drops: put a gallon zip lock bag in a large measuring cup.  Turn sides down over rim of cup.  Spoon batter into zip lock bag.  Seal after letting out air.  Snip one corner at the bottom of zip lock bag. Using the bag as a pastry bag, squeeze out batter onto prepared cookie sheet, leaving several inches between because batter will spread while baking. This helps keep the size of the drops consistent.

I love reading about your family and seeing your pictures. I respect the fact that you are teaching your son's family values because so much of that seems to be going by the wayside anymore..maybe someday we will meet and by that time your son's may even have their own cooking show.lol..wishing you lots and lots of love from this country girl's kitchen to Brooke Deen's kitchen of love.
