Featured Shmear this week: Chocolate Chip

Stop by this week for a sample of our delicious Chocolate Chip Shmear. By customer request, we have changed the recipe up a bit! This new, cream cheesy spread has a sweetness reminiscent of cheesecake and canolli filling. A treat for your bagel and your taste buds!

Double Chocolate Passover Cookies

4 tbsp margarine (or butter if you aren’t serving with meat)

3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed

2 large egg yolks

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 cup matza meal

1/4 tsp salt

4 large egg whites

8 ozs semi-sweet choc chips

This recipe makes 12-15 cookies and can easily be doubled.

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter or margarine and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla, then add chocolate, matzo meal, and salt. Beat until mixture just comes together. (It should be thick.)

2. In a clean bowl and with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into chocolate mixture. Add chocolate chips and stir. Let stand 15 minutes.

3. Scoop 2-inch balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on sheet on a wire rack for 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to rack, and let cool completely.
