Kahlua-Chocolate Chip Cookies
"A twist on the everyday chocolate chip cookies. I make mine with a sugar-free Kahlua coffee flavored syrup and walnuts. Gives it just the right taste. Try these cookies next time you want a chocolate chip cookie. You won't be sorry."

Very good. However I must agree with another reviewer that the taste of Kahlua was very, very far away. Will try again with some coffee powder, hopefully the taste will be enhanced.<br/>Got 68 cookies and they baked for 9 minutes.They were crispy, chewy, good taste, very pleased I made them.<br/>Thanks for posting. -
Just another chocolate chip cookie and it wasted my Kahlua. No point in making these because you cannot taste the Kahlua. Make Tollhouse instead. -
Because you can barely taste the Kahula in the Kahula cookie I can only give 3 stars. Otherwise it’s a tasty chocolate chip cookie.

delicious - but I couldn't taste the kahlua in the cookie dough. Maybe put some expresso powder in as well. -
These were really marvelous and a nice change from a traditional toll house cookie. The shortening gives these a lovely crispy exterior with a chewy inside. In the debate over butter or shortening, the canned stuff will win you over here. I used pecans and a very luxurious ultra dark chocolate bar chopped into bits. The later decision stems from a fondness for uneven bit of chocolate so that each bite is a surprise. Also, the Kahlua in the dough seemed to command a richer chocolate. Since I was looking to do some variations, I split my dough in two. To the second half, I added a few additional tablespoons of Kahlua and about 1/3 to 1/2 cup Dutch processed cocoa. Instead of the dark chips I added white and milk chocolate chips to contrast with the dough. Both were divine and will make a wonderful gift.
