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
- Heat the oven up on 180°C
- Mix together the eggs, white sugar, brown sugar
- Add the butter and mix well
- Add together the flour, raising powder and chocolate chips. Â Mix by hand.
- 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. Â 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.
- Bake until the colour starts to change slightly golden brown. Do not overbake.
- Slide the baking paper with cookies on it on the cooling rack. Leave to cool for a few minutes before moving them.
- You should expect to need two bakes if using two baking trays at the same time.
