Santa Fe Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

This post is sponsored by Imperial Sugar.  All opinions are mine alone. 

One of my favorite parts about #Choctoberfest is getting to work with Imperial Sugar as a sponsor.  I received a generous package of sugar, stacking measuring cups, and a silicone baking mat, all of which were positively instrumental in creating these Santa Fe Style Chocolate Chip Cookies.  The silicone baking mat was perfect for baking these cookies.  Imperial Sugar has a great contest going on through October 20^th: The Scary Scramble.  Each day this week, Imperial Sugar will post a scrambled recipe title and a clue for you to find the recipe in their Halloween recipe collection.  Once you complete the entry form with the unscrambled recipe name, you’ll be entered to win a great prize package of a cookie decorating kit, a silicone baking mat and 10 free sugar vouchers.   Just think about all the great cookies you could be making this season!

When the days start to cool off in fall and the leaves start to turn, I am always transported back in time to New Mexico.  The leaves, the light, the shorter days – I can practically smell chilies roasting in the air.  I also start thinking about spending time in Santa Fe and enjoying chocolate chip cookies with pine nuts.  It is such a nostalgic taste for me.  On rainy and cool days here on the coast, I just want to hunker down with a cookie and a cup of tea and read for hours on end.  These Santa Fe Style Chocolate Chip Cookies represent the best of both worlds for me – the nostalgia of fall in New Mexico and the present day rainy-day bliss.
