Mary's Cookies of Racial Harmony
These are a favorite of our cartoonist. The cookie itself is nice and chewy, and very very sweet. The name comes from the many different colors of chips involved, which all join together as people of different colors should join together to produce a beautiful product.
The sheer variety of different chips in this recipe means that every cookie will be different, and every bite of every cookie will be a little different. I think you will enjoy them!
This recipe calls for raspberry chocolate chips. It was originally created with Hershey's Raspberry Chocolate Chips in mind, but over the past few years these have been hard to find. I don't know if they've been discontinued. If you can't find Hershey's, Nestle makes a Semi-Sweet Raspberry swirled chip that works just as well. Don't be afraid to experiment.
