This irresistible brown sugar rhubarb delight cookies is the perfect way to end any meal. Made with unsalted butter (softened), 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar, it's a sweet treat that will satisfy any dessert craving.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped fresh rhubarb
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and optional ground cinnamon.
- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Carefully fold in the finely chopped rhubarb and the nuts if you are using them.
- Using a spoon, scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets and bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges and set in the center.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a short time before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
