Welcome back to Bakes and Brew!! 🤠
This week’s Baking with Kiara is all about a cookie that has captured my heart and taste buds—Windsor’s Cookies, inspired by the delightful Windsor series by Catharina Maura. If you’ve dived into the drama, love, and royalty in her novels, you’ve likely come across these famous chocolate chip cookies, a signature treat for the characters. So, naturally, I had to bring them to life!
Why Windsor’s Cookies? 🍪
Catharina Maura’s puts so much details when creating the Windor’s world. She creates a world that feels as cozy and delicious as it is thrilling and romantic. These chocolate chip cookies aren’t just any cookies—they’re a symbol of comfort and nostalgia for the characters, a sweet moment in the midst of their royal drama. I was so inspired by that sense of warmth and connection, I just had to try making a batch myself. 💜
The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie 🍪
Windsor’s Cookies are your classic chocolate chip cookies but with a rich, buttery twist that makes them feel fit for royalty. Imagine biting into a soft, chewy cookie with slightly crisp edges, packed with melty chocolate chunks. They have just the right balance of sweetness, making them perfect for pairing with a warm drink, whether it’s a classic coffee brew or a cozy tea.
Recipe:
– 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
– 1 cup brown sugar
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 2 tsp vanilla extract
– 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp baking soda
– ½ tsp salt
– 2 cups chocolate chips (or chunks for extra indulgence)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the center is still soft.
8. Let the cookies cool slightly before sprinkling with a touch of sea salt if you’re feeling extra fancy.
Windsor’s Cookies: A Royal Treat for Any Occasion 👑
These are perfect for curling up with a good book (like one of Catharina Maura’s novels!) or sharing with friends and family over a hot drink. Their soft, chewy texture and the melty chocolate make every bite feel like a hug from a royal friend.
Next time you’re looking for a simple yet decadent treat, whip up a batch of Windsor’s Cookies, and I promise they’ll make you feel like royalty in your own kitchen.
Happy baking! 🍪👑
