Ingredients
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup MHM Unicorn cornmeal
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, followed by vanilla extract.
Gradually, with the mixer on low speed, blend in the flour mixture until the dough comes together. Stir in chocolate chips. The dough will be quite stiff.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls and place onto prepared baking sheet, allowing about 2-inches between cookies to allow for spread.
Bake for 10-13 minutes, until cookies are lightly browned and set. Allow to cool for 3-4 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Let's Get Started:
1. Bring 4 cups water to a rapid boil in a heavy saucepan (you may start with 3 cups and add the 4th as needed while cooking—this may reduce cook time but will require a closer eye and more stirring).
2. Add 1 tsp salt and 2 Tbsp butter.
3. Add 1 cup grits and stir well until the water boils again.
4. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and continue cooking for about 25 minutes, stirring often and adding water if needed.
Cheese Pairing
Classic sharp yellow cheddar amplifies the sunny sweetness of yellow corn.
Finish
Stir in 1½ cups sharp yellow cheddar, 2 Tbsp butter, and a splash of whole milk for extra creaminess.
