Catalina Island Airport "Killer Cookie" Recipe


Catalina Island Airport/Buffalo Springs Station


I first had this cookie while my wife and I were on our honeymoon (we were married July 4th, 2003 on Catalina Island) on Catalina Island, I couldnt eat enough of these cookies, I stumbled across this recipe on line, and it is pretty much the same recipe, if it isnt then I couldnt tell the diffrance.

  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a greased cookie sheet (At the airport they make these cookies 4-5 ( a ball of dough about the size of a golf ball) inches in diameter, and thats how I like em too) and bake for 12-15 minutes They should be a little undercooked, but not too much, just enough to "set" while they cool off. Cool on a wire rack.
