Haxor Cookies - New and Improved

December 15th, 2007 · 3 Comments



 
 

 Years ago I read a really good by called The Cuckoo’s Egg: Tracking a Spy Through the Maze of Computer Espionage by Cliff Stoll. Its a fascinating true story how an astronomer from Berkley caught a hacker who was stealing government secrets and selling them.

 The book is a great read and I wish I would’ve been able to read when I was younger. If I did I am sure I would’ve made it my mission to attend university at Berkley. I highly recommend reading this book if you are even remotely interested in computer security. It is by no means a technical book on computer security just an excellent read.

 Cliff Stoll also include his recipe for totally awesome chocolate chip cookies in this book. So through out the years I have made these cookies calling them Haxor Cookies. Well through a random mishap I packed some of these cookies along with a banana for lunch one day. The cookies took on an most delectiable flavour of banana. This got me to thinking that I should try and add some banana too them as you would for banana bread. The result is a banana / chocolate chip cookie hybrid and I must say it is awesome. So I have decided to pass on the recipe so you can try it for yourself. Give it a try and tell me what you think. Also what should we call these hybrids?


 
 
New and Improved Haxor Cookies

  • Two Eggs
  • 1 Cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Regular Sugar
  • Two sticks softened butter or margarine
  • 1 Cup Mashed up Banana

 Combine the above ingredients, fold in 2 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and a couple tablespoons of vanilla. If you want a little extra chocolate jag add in 3 tablespoons of cocoa. The add two cups of chocolate chips and mix it all together. Take a spoon and scoop some out for each individual cookie onto a baking sheet. Bake them for 10 minutes at 375 degrees F for ten minutes. Let ‘em cool and you have some fabulous cookies. Let me know how they turned out for you.

    Will have to give them a try. I assume 1 cup is 8oz or 225g, but whats the real weight for the stick of butter?

    One stick of butter is about 250 grams. You may have to add a little more flour if the mixture is too runny.
