Jalapeno Chocolate Chip Cookies

June 8, 2015 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 25 Comments

Hi Everyone,

As you may know, one of my favorite cookies in the world are chocolate chip. I am always changing the recipe up to give it a little more umph and I have to admit today’s chocolate chip cookie recipe just rocks!  If you like spice and heat you will love these ooey, gooey sweet cookies that have a major punch of heat.  Let me introduce to you my newest cookie to the collection; Jalapeno Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Jalapeno Chocolate Chip Cookies
Your probably wondering why jalapenos? Well I have so many of them from the garden that I just don’t know what to do with them all. Until my tomatoes come in season, you’re going to be getting lots of pepper recipes. So what’s up with jalapenos in cookies? Well, glad you asked! Have you ever had jalapeno peppers and chocolate together? It is a crazy combination that goes so well together. The little bit of heat from the peppers, really intensifies the chocolate. The cookies do have some heat, but not enough to burn. It just adds a new level of flavor to your cookies. Trust me, if you like jalapenos, you should give this a try. Amazing!

Jalapeno Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am loving my new spicy cookies! Just be sure to take the seeds and the membrane out of the jalapenos. I can only imagine how hot these would be if you left the seeds in them. After all, that is where the heat comes from. So next time you pick up some fresh jalapenos, save some and add them in your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. This will be quite a surprise for those who taste it.

Enjoy your day!


Toodles,

Jennifer

    Sounds delicious! I will just have to try these.
    They look very festive with the green from the peppers. Thanks for the inspiration 😊

      Hi Pam, The cookies are unique for sure. I made these yesterday and they were perfectly spicy, but today they seemed a little bit hotter. I recommend using 3 jalapenos instead of 4, unless you like the heat. 🙂

      It’s a crazy cookie. I’ll be honest, not everyone liked them, but at my Husbands work, he said they all got eaten and was asked for the recipe.

    i am so excited to try these! i am very interested in doing chocolate with a ‘savory’ flair (i know these are still a dessert, but my brain associates jalapeno with savory dishes!), these look great!

    Hi, do you think I could use frozen jalapenos in this? Or do they have to be fresh? Thanks!

      Hi Katherine, Honestly, I am not sure. I used fresh. But frozen may work. I would say give it a try.

      Frozen jalapenos work just as well as fresh in any recipe you cook. I use them all the time.

    Stumbled upon this recipe from Pinterest and I’m glad i did! This recipe is awesome. I made this with cake flour instead of regular flour and 4 jalapeños and added The seeds of about two in the recipe. A great spicy but the chocolate and vanilla add a great sweet note. Can’t wait for everyone to try. Love this thank you!

Happy Wednesday!! Half way through the week. Boy I Happy Wednesday!! Half way through the week. Boy I can’t wait for the weekend. I’m looking so forward to finish working in the garden. Well, technically it will never be finished, which I don’t mind. I want to plant a tomato this weekend. Just not sure what kind?
🌿
I refreshed my living room just a tad bit. I took down most of the bunnies, and that is all. I had a lot of them. It made me realize that I forgot my coffee bar. I still have bunnies, chicks and eggs on it. They’ll have to come down this week.
🌿
I have a surprise! Swipe my photo and you’ll see Sampson! He hasn’t made an appearance here in awhile. He said he misses you all!
🌿
Are you planting any vegetables this season?

My Mom got these by saving the stamps you would get from the grocery store with purchase. Each piece of China had a stamp value. So once you collected enough stamps you could pick up another piece of the collection. Needless to say, my Mom collected a lot of stamps and I have the whole set to serve 12 people.☕️

Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room a lit Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room  a little bit. I took out my Easter decor and gave it a more neutral look and did some switching around. Plus I added a Samantha Sue, who is laying down in the photo. lol
🍓
One of my favorite pieces that I added was my new @krumpetshomedecor sign. I love the style of the sign with the shiplap white wash look and of course the cute strawberry and daisies that add a pretty pop of color.
🍓
The sign is also reversible. It also says Life is Sweet on the other side without the strawberries and daises. The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week.

Hello and happy Wednesday! Thank you for all your Hello and happy Wednesday!  Thank you for all your kind words about the dentist. All he had to do is cement my crown back on. He said your crown has sticky with clear stuff on it. He said I don’t think it’s the old cement?  I told him I ate a white Trader Joe’s jelly bean and I thought I got it all off. He was laughing.
🌿
It’s that time of year for house plant care. While your plants are waking from dormancy, it’s time to feed them, repot them if needed and give a trim if applicable.
🌿
I also water my plants about every 7-10 days, depending on the plant. My coffee plant, fern, violet and my mixed plant container needs watering more. The key to know when to water is check the soil. I use a water meter probe and  you just stick it in the dirt. If it’s dry, I water. If it’s moist or wet, I’ll check again in a few days. You can get a water meter at Lowe’s, your local nursery or Amazon. It’s my number 1 garden tool. We use it on outside plants too.
🌿
I’m also sharing with you my cute little tea towel that I got from @e.h.designco. Her shop is closed right now because she’s moving, but will be open back in June.
🌿
Okay, go check your plants!

What’s your favorite house plant?

Happy Tuesday! Well today’s the day! I head to Happy Tuesday!  Well today’s the day! I head to the dentist. Wish me luck. I hope they will be able to glue my crown back on. I hate going to the dentist! Ugh!
🌸
Today I am sharing with you my new plates and bowls that I got from @sonemone_official. I just love them. The shade of blue is so pretty and I love the vibrant colors on them.
🌸
The bowls are huge and would make a wonderful soup bowl or salad bowl. The plates would be beautiful served with a charcuterie board. They are microwave and dishwasher safe. They would be so pretty on a summer tablescape.
🌸
Are you ready for summer decorating?

Happy Good Friday! So happy the weekend is here. Happy Good Friday!  So happy the weekend is here. It’s been a glorious week with warm temperatures and sunshine. Next week it’s supposed to cool off dramatically, so I am going to enjoy it while it’s here.
💕
I wanted to get one last Easter tiered tray in before Sunday. Everything you see here is from small shops. I tagged all of them in the photo.
💕
This weekend I’ll be taking a break from IG to work in the yard and to do some decorating so I have some new content to share with you. Though with Easter almost behind us, I’m unsure what I’ll do next? But I do think I’ll stick with the yellows? But we’ll see.
💕
Have the most wonderful weekend and Easter holiday!!

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe March is behind Happy Thursday! I can’t believe March is behind us and now we are in April. March flew by in a blink of an eye.  I can’t get over how fast the month went. It’s crazy.
🌸
My excitement for me today is trying to get into a dentist. My crown on my implant fell out yesterday when I was eating a jelly bean. The last place I want to go is the dentist. Yuck!
🌸
I’ll admit engagement in March on IG has just been awful. But I am so thankful for you. Thank you for stopping by and liking my photos and your sweet comments. You always make my day. Let’s hope April is better for all of us.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my top 4 photos of March. You guys picked some good ones. The first photo of the Easter tablescape is my favorite tablescape I’ve done.
🌸
Do you have any plans for this weekend?

Hey, hey, hey! Happy Wednesday! Well I crammed 23 Hey, hey, hey! Happy Wednesday! Well I crammed 23 bunnies into this picture, if you count the bunnies on the pillow. Can you find them all?
🐰
This is probably my favorite spot to decorate. About a year or so ago, I had no idea what to do in this area. I struggled so much. It’s just an odd space. Then I bought the white bench and it instantly became so much fun to decorate.
🐰
I loved the bench so much, I bought a second one to go under the other window. That bench holds my plants. I have other awkward spaces in my home that I would love to add a bench, but my husband would kill me if I got another. I can overdo things when I like something. Like bunnies and pumpkins. lol
🐰
Do you have something that you can’t resist to buy?

Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another bunny vigne Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another bunny vignette. I told you that I’m trying to squeeze them all in.
🐰
Let me tell you, I must have taken a bazillion photos of this vignette. I moved it all over my house. I have the worse time photographing greens and yellows together. I have the same issue with sunflowers too.
🐰
I was inspired by this vignette by the cute little Fresh Dyed Eggs sign from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. I love the little sign so much. She makes the cutest little signs.
🐰
I had fun putting together the shallow pot with moss and the birds nest. I added my little daffodils to it to look like they are popping out of the pot.
🐰
Is there something you try to photograph that gives you a hard time?
