Chocolate Cookies w/Lavender Sugar

November 4, 2016

As you already know…my favorite way to enjoy culinary lavender is by using Lavender Sugar!

Here is how I make it: Combine 2 cups sugar and 2 tablespoon lavender buds in Food Processor on mince setting until lavender is finely ground throughout the sugar.

NOTE :  If you don’t want to make Lavender Sugar for this recipe….you can use plain white sugar and 1 t. lavender buds (chop finely on cutting board with knife).

My recipe for Chocolate Lavender Cookies:

¾ cup lavender sugar

¼ cup brown sugar

2 eggs

1 t. vanilla

⅓ cup cocoa

1 1/2 cups flour

Lemon Lavender Tea Cookies

My favorite way to enjoy lavender in cooking is to replace the sugar in a recipe with Lavender Sugar. It’s so easy to DIY!

Here’s how I make it: Combine 2 cups sugar and one tablespoon lavender buds in a Food Processor on mince setting until lavender is finely ground throughout the sugar.

Add this delicately floral sugar to any dessert, muffins, scones, tea, dressings and marinades or sprinkle on any baked good for a fresh and elegant treat.

NOTE :  If you don’t want to make Lavender Sugar for this recipe….you can use plain white sugar and 1 t. lavender buds (finely chop on cutting board with knife).

Try my Lemon Lavender Tea Cookies

½ cup oil

¾ cup lavender sugar

1 egg

1 T. lemon extract
