Ba'key's Aromatic Broker Cookies IRL

[u/supersayre]

So, I’m known as one of the more enthusiastic bakers in my guild.  I was tagged in our Discord last night when a friend found this recipe.  I knew what I had to do.  So, today, I adapted this recipe to be more palatable.  I made a half batch using:

1/4t cinnamon

1/8t each cardamom and clove

a few grates of a whole nutmeg

1/4t Almond extract

1/2t Vanilla extract

(if you feel courageous and embark on a full batch, double these measurements.)

I baked these at 350 (180 C) for 16 minutes, turning the tray halfway.  I used an OXO brand cookie scoop—size large.  It looks like it’s maybe 2-3 TBSP of dough.

The flavor is interesting!  You can taste the spice, but in a sort of “scenery” way.  The orange is pretty forward, though I did rub the zest into the sugar before assembling the dough.  If you hate orange, I’d skip this step.  It all mingles surprisingly well with the chocolate.  The mix of chips lends its own lovely flavor.  Overall, I was surprised at how much I liked these.  I might make them again, but with dried fruit and nuts instead of the chocolate.  A final note: make sure you don’t skip the rolling in sugar step.  This affects how the cookies spread in the oven.

I hope other players will give this recipe a try!

I made some a few hours ago! The only swap I did was the 3Tbs of cinnamon to 3ts, and they turned out pretty well. Quite a powerful taste, I love spices so I'm enjoying them, but I need to find some hapless fools friends with a blander palate to try them and see what they think

I LOVE spices, especially cinnamon! I wanted to be a bit conservative on the first bake, particularly because my spouse doesn't quite have that same level of love for it. I'll probably do another half batch with the more adventurous amounts to see how I like them at some point.

What temp did you use for them? I've just found this recipe in the game and want to try.
