So today is a more interesting day. Woke up and executed my plan of cookie tasting. Wanted to bake the cookies to bring to Bible Study for them to sample. I intend to use the recipe to bake the cookies for the Thanksgiving party favour. So wanted some feedback before the time comes, in case I need to make some changes.
Anyways, the feedback was that the cookie is nice cause not that sweet. I used dark chocolate morsels instead of the usual semi-sweet morsels. The cookies turn out a bit dark as I used the dark brown sugar rather than the light brown sugar. The recipe is below the pictures.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
110g butter (softened)
85g sugar (i used organic sugar)
85g packed brown sugar (i used dark brown sugar)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
250g plain flour
2 eggs
220g chocolate morsels (i used dark chocolate morsels)
110g chopped nuts (i used macadamia nuts, halved)
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 190ºC or 370ºF
Add butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract into a mixing bowl. Beat until creamy. (i used a hand-held egg beater)
Add in eggs , one by one, and continue to beat until creamy and texture constant.
In a clean bowl, add in salt, baking soda and flour. Mix well.
Add the flour mixture to the above mixture and beat well.
Add in the chocolate morsels and nuts. Use a spatula and mix well. (i added the nuts on each cookie dough)
Drop a small amount of the dough (look at the photo for sample of dough compared to a half macadamia nut). Leave some space in between dough drops as they expand during baking.
Bake for 8 to 9 mins.
Remove from oven and leave to cool totally before storing. (if stored before totally cooled, cookies will be a bit soft)
Hope you enjoy the cookies!
Do give me feedback if any. Thanks!
