Ingredients

  • 2 cups crunchy corn snacks (like corn nuts)
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter room temp
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup corn flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup raspberry drupelets
  • 1 tablespoon minced basil (heaping tablespoon)

Instructions

  • Add the crunchy corn snacks to a food processor and blend until they become a sandy texture. This should result in about 2/3 cup of corn sand but you might want to double check and adjust if needed!
  • Beat the butter and sugar for 3-5 minutes with a hand or stand mixer until lightened in color. Add the eggs and beat for 7-8 more minutes.
  • Stir in the flour, corn flour, corn sand, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until it all comes together.
  • Scoop 1/3 cup portions of the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet at least 4 inches apart. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350
  • Bake the cookies about 18 minutes until they flatten out and get a very slight brown edge. Allow to cool before serving!
