Persimmon Cookies


I should have posted this earlier, but last weekend my daughter and I made persimmon cookies. It was a first for me, I had never made them before. Pitty I didn't get take a photo. This is one I found online, but it looked very close to what we made.

I found a recipe online. I pulped the persimmons. They have to be dead ripe and squishy for this portion of the recipe.

And I mean squishy.

Then my daughter measured and dumped everything into the bowl, while I stirred. She finally took a turn at stirring when my arm and hand were about to give out. Then she made the first batch and I make the next and the next. Well, the recipe was for three dozen cookies and we doubled it.

I was up till three in the morning baking cookies and my daughter had long since fallen asleep, lol.

The next morning, I got up and brought my hubby a whole plate of our cookies. His eyes got real big and a smile stretched across his face.

Oh, he was a happy hubby for sure.
