C is for Cookies…Choc Chip Cookies

C is for Cookies….The best Choc Chip Cookies

“C is for Cookies, that’s good enough for me
Oh, cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C”
I use these choc chip cookies for many occasions: lunch boxes, presents, travels, picnics, playdates, …

What I like with this recipe is that you can make them very small, bite size like or maxi over indulging size! This recipe describes medium (normal) size biscuits.

Ingredients

200 g of butter, melted
150 g of white sugar
200 g of brown sugar
2 eggs
450 g of flour
1 teaspoon of raising powder (1 sachet if using that version)
300 g of good cooking chocolate chopped with a knife (or use packets of chocolate chips from the shop)

Method
  1. Heat the oven up on 180°C
  2. Mix together the eggs, white sugar, brown sugar
  3. Add the butter and mix well
  4. Add together the flour, raising powder and chocolate chips.  Mix by hand.
  5. Cover 2 baking sheets with baking paper, with a spoon (or with your hands) place on the baking sheet little mounds the size of an apricot,push down very slightly.  Make sure the mounds are not to close to each other (at least leaving space of the size of one mound between two mounds) as they will spread during baking.
  6. Bake until the colour starts to change slightly golden brown. Do not overbake.
  7. Slide the baking paper with cookies on it on the cooling rack. Leave to cool for a few minutes before moving them.
  8. You should expect to need two bakes if using two baking trays at the same time.
