The purpose of this study was to evaluate cookies added with aged black chestnut inner shells powder (ABCI). Cookies were prepared with three different levels (0.25%, 0.5%, or 1%) of ABCI. During storage, moisture content was higher in cookies containing ABCI compared with control cookies. As the amount of ABCI increased, pH of cookies added with ABCI decreased slightly, whereas acidity increased. The lightness and yellowness in the Hunter color system of cookies with ABCI decreased during storage, whereas redness increased during storage. Higher reducing sugar was contained in cookies with ABCI than in the control. Textural properties by texture profile analysis showed that hardness and chewiness decreased with an increase in ABCI amount. Total phenol content increased in cookies with ABCI. Antioxidant activities such as diphenyl picrylhydrazyl radical and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities increased in cookies with ABCI compared with that of the control. It is concluded that cookies with ABCI may be of high quality with antioxidant activity. In the preference test, cookies added with 0.5% ABCI showed the high results in terms of overall preference and buying intention.

The effects of adding varying amounts (0%, 1.5%, 3%, 6%, and 12%) of the medium roasted coffee powder on the quality characteristics of rice cookies, which were prepared without wheat flour, were studied. The ingredients were mixed, cut, baked at $170{\sim}180^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, cooled, and packaged in plastic bags. Lightness ($L^*$), yellowness ($b^*$), chroma ($C^*$), and hue angle ($h^{\circ}$) of cookies decreased as the addition amount of the coffee powder increased. Redness ($a^*$) increased with the amount of the coffee powder. Firmness and phenolic compounds tended to increase with the increase in coffee content, however, the firmness levels of the cookies containing 1.5~3% coffee powder were insignificantly different. Antioxidant activity of cookies increased with the increase in the amount of coffee powder. Antioxidant activity of the cookies added with 3% coffee powder was significantly higher than that of the cookies added with 1.5% coffee powder. As a results of the sensory evaluation, the intensity of darkness, smell, bitterness, hardness of the cookies tended to increase with the increase in the amount of coffee powder. The overall acceptability of the cookies was significantly higher for the cookies containing 1.5~3% coffee powder than for the other samples. These results suggested that coffee powder (approximately 3%) can be utilized as an additive for preparing rice cookies which have simultaneously high antioxidant activity and acceptability.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of cookies added with the powder of pomace powder, which was produced as a by-product in Korean rice wine (Takju). The quality of cookies was evaluated based on moisture content, color, hardness, and sensory evaluation. Cookies were prepared by addition of 0, 5, 10, and 15% Takju pomace powders to basic flour formulation. The pH values of dough added with Takju pomace powder were 3.04-6.52, which was lower than that of the control group. The moisture contents of cookies were 6.92-6.52% and were lowest in cookies added with 15% Takju pomace powder. The L value was reduced according to the increase in Takju pomace powder. On the contrary, a value increased. Especially, a value of the control was negative (-0.96) while those of cookies added with Takju pomace powder were positive. There were no significant differences in the b value of these cookies. For texture, hardness of cookies was lowest in 15% Takju pomace powder cookies. The results of the sensory evaluation compared to cookies with 10% powder Takju pomace were superior in appearance, taste and overall preference.

Herbs have unique tastes and flavors, and they have been used in western foods. This study used herbs to make cookies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the sensory characteristics of cookies with rosemary(1, 2, 3, 4%) and mints(1, 2, 3, 4%) after foretasting herbs. The sample of this study was 880 college students which consisted of 436 males and 444 females. The results of this study were as follows. This study was conducted to find a high quality product through a sensory test with rosemary and mints. First, in terms of foretasting experience, the respondents had tasted 12 herbs. 65.2% of them preferred parsley, followed by mint(45.2%), bay leaf(44.0%), rosemary(28.3%), basil(21.8 %), etc. Second, in terms of the most important items while making herb added to bread and cookies, taste was high with 45.8%, flavor 27.3%, price 10.1%, nutrition 8.5%, etc. There were significant differences between genders and among majors(p<0.001). Third, it was found that appearance was high with 2% added group(M=6.00) in terms of sensory preference. The flavors, tastes, texture, overall acceptability were high with 1% added group in terms of sensory preference of cookies with rosemary. The respondents showed low preference for cookies with mints. While the 1% added mint group showed the highest preference for appearances and texture, the control group showed the highest preference for flavors, tastes and overall acceptability. There was a significant difference in appearances and tastes on all samples except colors and taste of rosemary added cookies $(p<0.05{\sim}p<0.001)$. Fourth, males preferred 2% rosemary added one in appearances and tastes in a sensory test. They preferred the 1% rosemary added group in terms of flavors, texture, and overall acceptability. Females preferred appearances of cookies with 2% rosemary and also preferred flavors, tastes, texture and, overall acceptability with 1% rosemary. Both of them less preferred 4% mint added one. Overall, this study found that respondents preferred 1% rosemary herb cookies. There should be further researches with less than 1% mint to make herb cookies.

This study evaluated the characteristics and antioxidant properties of cookies prepared with different amounts (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) of Lentinus edodes water extract (LEWE). The baking loss rate of cookies increased as the amount of LEWE increased (p<0.05). The pH of cookies significantly decreased when amounts of LEWE increased (p<0.05), but spread factor, leavening rate, and moisture content showed no significant difference among the samples. L value and b value of cookies significantly decreased when amounts of LEWE increased (p<0.05), but a value of cookies significantly increased when amounts of LEWE increased (p<0.05). Hardness was higher in the 7% LEWE cookies. Chewiness and brittleness increased with increasing LEWE concentration, but cohesiveness and springiness showed no significant differences among the samples. Total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity significantly increased upon the addition of LEWE (p<0.05). In a sensory evaluation, the appearance, color, and taste of the cookies were rated higher in groups containing 0% LEWE, but the flavor, texture, and overall acceptability scores were highest for cookies with 1% LEWE added. These results suggest that cookies prepared by adding 1-3% LEWE achieve the best sensory evaluation and antioxidant activity.

This study was conducted to determine the quality properties, phytochemical compounds, and antioxidant activities of cookies prepared by replacing wheat flour with 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6% aronia powder. The moisture content of the cookies decreased as the amount of aronia powder added increased. In contrast, the ash, crude protein, and crude fat content of the cookies did not differ between the control cookie and the cookies prepared with 2-6% aronia powder. The spreadability, leavening rate, loss rate and pH decreased with increasing aronia powder content. Compared to the control cookie, the lightness of the cookies decreased, but the redness and yellowness of the cookies increased as the amount of aronia powder added increased. The total polyphenol content of the cookies increased with increasing aronia powder content. The antioxidant activity of the cookies increased significantly as to the amount of aronia powder added increased compared to that of control cookie. Based on the these results, it is concluded that adding aronia powder to cookies increases antioxidant activity.

Cookies containing wheat flour mixed with 10, 30 or 50% esterified with octenylsuccinic anhydride (OSA, 3%) and dry-heated ($130^{\circ}C$, 2 hr) high amylose rice (Goami 2) starch (DH-OSAR) were prepared and then their physical and digestive properties were evaluated. When the amount of added DH-OSAR increased, the hardness and brittleness of the cookies decreased, and L (brightness) value increased. For the digestive properties, the cookies containing 50% DH-OSAR significantly increased the amount of slowly digestible starch (SDS), and decreased the amount of rapidly digestible starch (RDS), resulting in the lowest expected Glycemic Index (eGI) among tested cookies. Although the cookies containing DHOSAR were inferior to the control, the addition of xanthan gum (0.5% based on total powder amount) significantly improved their textural and sensory properties. Specially, the cookies containing 50% DH-OSAR and the addition of 0.5% xanthan gum showed the lowest eGI value, maintaining the improved textural and sensory properties.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Curcuma Longa L cookies prepared with various levels of rice flour were investigated in this study. There were significant differences in the density of dough, and it had the highest value of 1.32 in the control group. The pH and moisture content of dough increased by addition of rice flour. Spread factor of cookies was significantly decreased by addition of rice flour. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 58.72%, whereas cookies with rice flour ranged from 59.26~61.41%. The L value of brightness was increased, but a and b value were decreased significantly by addition of rice flour. The hardness of the control group was higher than that of the cookies prepared with different levels of rice flour. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall preference for cookies showed that 50% and 75% substituted sample groups were higher than those of the other groups. The results of this study suggest that addition of 50~75% rice flour is the best substitution ratio for rice cookies added with Curcuma Longa L.

The objective of this study was to exploit the use of this nutrient-rich byproduct in cookies by replacing wheat flour at 10~30% levels. The specific gravity and pH of cookies decreased slightly with increasing apple pomace concentration, but the specific gravity of cookies showed no significant difference in the additive group. The sugar contents of cookies was significantly increased to $2.07^{\circ}Brix$ at 30%. Moisture content, spread factor, loss rate, and leaving rate of cookies increased with increasing apple pomace concentration. Lightness, redness, and yellowness of cookies decreased from 70.46 to 56.25, and 5.60 to 3.01, and 37.52 to 27.92, respectively, with increasing apple pomace concentration. In the sensory evaluation, sensory scores for color, flavor, texture, appearance, and overall preference were highest in the 10% and 20% apple pomace cookies in the additive group. Thus, our results suggested that the optimum amount of apple pomace that can be added to cookies was 20%.
