Chocolate Chip Cookies

Life without chocolate chip cookies is like swimming without water. You have to have it. It doesn't make sense not to. And I'm not talking about the store bought ones. I'm talking about the homebaked shizzles. The ones that comes out all warm and gooey, sinfully melting in your mouth until before you know it, you've wolfed down 5.

I'm gonna try making these with bread flour next time. Heard that it really helps to improve the chewiness and texture of the cookies. Will update you guys on the results. In the meantime...

Ingredients

125 grams butter
120 grams brown sugar
30 grams white sugar
1 egg
125 grams self-raising flour
2/3 cups chocolate chips (or more if you like)


Heat oven up to 180 degrees Celsius and position the rack in the middle. Melt butter in a double boiler. Once melted, combine with the sugars and blend until smooth. Add in the egg and blend again. Sift in the flour a few tablespoons at a time until fully incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips. Drop by the tablespoons onto a baking tray line with baking paper. Space the dough out 1-1.5 inches. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes depending on how chewy or crisp you want it to be (the longer the crispier). Take out at let cool for 15 minutes before gobbling them up.

Enjoy!

Love,
Judy
