August Fig Cookies
Ingredients
½ cup butter, softened, ½ cup white sugar, ¼ cup golden brown sugar, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ⅛ teaspoon salt, ½ cup fresh figs, halved, ½ cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and grease two baking sheets. In a bowl, mix together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar by hand. Stir in the egg and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt, then stir this into the sugar mixture. Scoop out the centers of the figs, reserving 2 tablespoons of the pulp. Chop the remaining figs and centers, then fold them along with the walnuts into the cookie dough. Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the baking sheets and top each with a bit of the reserved fig pulp. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the edges are lightly browned.
