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. 🙂

    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! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?
