Cheesy Bak Kwa Cookie

Do you have this problem: After the whole CNY is over, you still have a lot of CNY goodies left behind.  You get a bit sick of eating them cos that is what you have been eating the whole of CNY at every house you go visit. I know I do.. I still have a pile of CNY goodies at home waiting for me to pound some calories into my body.. And most of them were not even bought by us, they were given by friends and relatives just like most of us. After a while, the goodies are not as tasting as it was in the start of CNY. 

One Sunday, I looked at the bak kwa that was still lying on my table screaming to eat me. I decided to bake it instead. Then I remembered about the Bacon Parmesan Cookies I made the last time, and I thought to myself, what if I used bak kwa instead of bacon? What will the taste be like? So I went ahead to bake them..

Bak Kwa with cheese cookie.. What y'all think about it?

Ingredients (Makes about 90 cookies)

1. ½ cup of Unsalted Butter at room temperature
2. ¾ cup of Shredded Parmiggiano Reggiano
3. 1 Tbsp of Raw Sugar
4. 2 Eggs
5. 3 bak kwa diced into small squares
6. 1 ¼ cups of All Purpose Flour
7. ½ tsp of Baking Soda
8. ½ Tsp of Baking Powder
9. ¼ Tsp of Salt

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 190C and place some parchment paper on a couple baking sheets, set aside
2. In a small bowl, combine together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside
3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, parmigginao regginano and brown sugar. Add the eggs and mix until you have a creamy mixture
4. Add the dry mixture and mix to combine. Fold in the bak kwa bits.
5. Using a cookie scoop, drop the cookies on the parchment line baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 14 minute or until golden brown
6. Cool for 5 min and serve warm. 

Picture of the cookies right after it is out of the over.. Piping hot!!

Nice?

Packed and ready to be eaten :)

I realise that it is better if you serve them warm then let it cool completely. The melted cheese in the warm cookie has a great aroma and soft texture. I left it overnight and took a bite cold, the cookie just did not taste as nice as it was when it was first out of the oven. 

Hope you like this cookie. Happy CNY :D
