Jubilee Jumbles Cookies

Jubilee Jumbles Cookies ~ a softer chocolate chip cookie with a brown butter glaze that tastes heavenly.

It's time to bring the kids into the kitchen and have them make some cookies with you. Depending on the age of your children you could assign each one a task in helping out.  Jubilee Jumble cookies were a childhood favorite in our house. This recipe was one of my mother's and I would like to share it with you. They are like a soft chocolate chip type cookie, but have more of a cake texture. This recipe makes quite a lot of cookies that your family will just love.
I broke the recipe down into very easy steps. I first posted this back in 2012 but did not have a good photograph to show you. Despite my arm and with the help of my husband I made these delicious Jubilee Jumbles cookies just in time for the holidays!  

With a handheld or stand mixer, blend the shortening, sugars and eggs in a large bowl.

½ cup white sugar

1 cup packed light brown sugar

½ cup soft shortening (Crisco)

2 eggs

Next, stir in milk and vanilla.

1 cup carnation milk (condensed)

1 tsp. vanilla

In a separate bowl, sift dry ingredients together.

2 ¾ cups flour (regular)

1 tsp. salt

½ tsp. baking soda

Add in the dry ingredients with the rest of the mixture and stir until well incorporated.

Last, add nuts and chocolate bits.

Ground nuts (walnuts or pecans) – 1 cup or more to your liking.

Chocolate bits (Nestle) – 1 cup or more to your liking.

Chill the dough for 1 hour. Drop by tbsp. on GREASED cookie sheets (or use parchment paper) sprayed with cooking spray.

BAKE at 375 degrees for 10 – 12 minutes.  Frost with the burnt butter glaze while the cookies are still warm. Makes approximately 4 dozen cookies.
