COOKIES OF THE MONTH January Cookie of the Month: “Cocoa-Molasses Drop Cookies” By Bruce McIntosh, Chef at the Country Club of Asheville Ingredients: 1/3 Cup Unsalted Butter, room temperature 1/3 Cup Granulated Sugar 1/3 Cup Molasses 1 Egg 1 Cup All-Purpose Flour, sifted 1 TSP Baking Powder 3 TBSP Hershey’s Cocoa Powder or whatever you have on hand 1/2 Cup Chopped Nuts
Yield: Approximately 2-3 Dozen Cookies
Directions: Cream butter and sugar; add molasses and the egg. Sift together all dry ingredients and add to wet ingredients. Fold in the nuts and scoop mixture into 1 inch rounds onto a greased and lined sheet pan. Bake at 375°F for 8 to 10 minutes.
February Cookie of the Month: "Holiday Meringue Cookies" By Chris Shaw, Holston Hills Country Club Ingredients: 16oz. Sweetened Flaked Coconut 1 Cup Sweetened Condensed Milk 1 TSP Vanilla Extract Pinch of Salt 6oz. Semisweet Chocolate Chips 2 Large Egg Whites
Directions: Start by mixing the coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt thoroughly in a mixing bowl. Next, separate the egg whites from the yolk and beat the egg whites until they form a stiff peak. Gently fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. Using a small scoop, scoop the mixture onto a parchment lined sheet pan spacing each about two inches apart. Place the macaroons in a 325°F preheated oven for 25 minutes, rotating as needed to prevent burning. While macaroons are baking in the oven, melt the chocolate in a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently. When cookies have cooled completely, dip the bottoms in the melted chocolate and place them on a clean sheet of parchment paper. Enjoy!

HISTORY OF MCCONNELL GOLF'S COOKIES OF THE MONTH
OUR CHEFS APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT The culinary teams at McConnell Golf would like to extend a special thanks for the support you have given them over the last 12 months. In addition to purchasing meal kits and ordering takeout options, you have helped give back to the community through meal fundraisers, wine dinners and more. Our chefs continue to work hard to provide unique offerings, while also ensuring your meals are prepared safely using quality ingredients. As we enter the New Year, remember to support the food and beverage team at your local club and take advantage of to-go packages.
THE TREYBURN TRIBUNE
Several years ago, at one of our annual corporate meetings, an idea was brought to the table that we needed a Lagniappe of our own that would show our appreciation to members and their guests for dining with us. This idea quickly grew to a collaboration of our executive chefs, their staff members and other club staff submitting cookie recipes to be used in our monthly rotation. These cookies would be a bite size sweet treat for everyone who had lunch at one of our properties in the dining room. As McConnell Golf has grown we have been able to feature a club each month, in addition to recipes from our CEO John McConnell and COO Christian Anastasiadis, the Easter bunny and Santa Claus. Beyond baking and serving these delicious treats in our clubs each month, we also share the recipe in our newsletter and online blog that includes a special story or meaning behind them. Our culinary teams have embraced this idea and continue to showcase their talents with these delectable sweet treats, from our kitchens to yours.
