Root Beer Cookies

I got this recipe originally from allrecipes.com, and didn't like it. But I had lots of root beer extract left, so I experimented to get the root beer to be the main taste, and not an undertone. Also, I didn't want frosting, so I just didn't make any. I prefer my cookies unfrosted. Now I think the cookies are great, and I can't stop eating them when I make them. Evan disagrees; he thinks they suck.

Root Beer Cookies

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
2 Tablespoons cream
1 Tablespoon root beer extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees).
  2. Cream together sugar and butter.
  3. Add egg, cream and root beer extract, mix.
  4. Fold in flour, baking soda and salt.
  5. Drop teaspoon sized pieces of dough 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes.
