Garlic Chip Cookies image

This recipe was printed a few years ago in the Milwaukee Journal along with other recipes with unusual ingredients. I'm known for bringing in cookies to work fairly regularly and I tend to bring these cookies on April Fool's Day. Many people can't figure out the secret ingredient. I think they taste OK, but have a bit of a garlic aftertaste. People who like garlic really enjoy them. I've had requests to bring them to work more often than just on April Fool's! I've noticed my coworkers in Arizona like them a lot more than coworkers in Wisconsin did...
