Woman cracks Famous Amos cookie recipe– her Facebook post has been shared over 200,000 times
If you’ve ever looked inside a vending machine or your childhood friend’s pantry you’ve seen Famous Amos cookies. The classic blue and yellow packaging is a staple and the bite-size cookies are loved by so many.
The famous recipe is unlike your usual chocolate chip cookie.
But this Malaysian woman named Baizura Muhammad was determined to make a homemade batch. So after countless tries, she finally cracked the recipe!
It’s very similar to your usual choco-chip recipe but some specific modifications give them that Famous Amos taste.
What You Need:
- 1.10 cups of softened butter
- 1 1/4 cups of brown sugar
- 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup of corn flour
- 2 1/2 cups of wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate
- 6 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
- 2 cups of chocolate chips
- almond nibs or flakes (optional)
Step 1:
Place softened butter, brown sugar, one egg, vanilla essence all into one large bowl. This is the most crucial part which is to stir with a spoon/spatula and NOT a mixer. You don’t want to over mix these ingredients or it will ruin the recipe. Simply mix until all ingredients are combined and stop.
Step 2:
After those ingredients are properly stirred, you’ll pour in the wheat flour, corn flour, baking soda, baking powder, and the vegetable oil into the same bowl. Mix all of these ingredients with a spatula or spoon until combined. Remember not to over stir them.
Step 3:
Now, the best part! Add 2 cups of those delicious chocolate chips. Baizura herself says “Insert another into the mouth”. Stir the chips together. This would also be the time to but almond nibs into the dough.
Step 4:
After the mix up is all done you’ll want to refrigerate the dough for about 30 minutes. You want the dough to be a little harder before we put them straight into the oven.
Step 5:
When 30 minutes have gone by, take out the yummy dough and grab a baking pan. You’ll want to rub the pan with butter before placing the cookie dough onto it. But there’s no need to put baking paper underneath.
Step 6:
Preheat your oven to 300°F and begin to scoop a small bit of round dough onto the baking pan. Make sure to leave room in between each dough ball.
Step 7:
Once you place cookie dough onto the baking pan place cookie pan in the oven. Cook the cookie dough for 20 minutes and TADA! You have yourself homemade Famous Amos cookies ready to share with all of your family and friends.
This delicious recipe is perfect for your next party or gathering and is sure to bring that nostalgic Famous Amos taste.
