Guests coming? No time to pick up something from the market…fret not! Bake these simple cookies at home and surprise your guests! And yes keep them away from kids…they simply get addicted to it! 🙂
This will roughly give you 6-9 large cookies. If you want more adjust the quantity of ingredients!
Butter – 100 gms
Refined flour (Maida) – 1 cup
White sugar – 1/2 cup
Brown Sugar – 1/2 cup
Egg – 1 no
Vanilla Essence – 1 tsp
Baking soda – 1/2 tsp
Salt – 2 pinches
Chocolate Bar / chips – 1 big bar / 1 cup of chips (if using bar roughly chop it)
- Place a baking sheet over cookie rack
- Preheat the oven at 180 degree C along with the rack with baking sheet
- Whip butter nicely
- Add both types of sugar to the butter and blend it nicely till creamy
- Add egg and beat
- Add vanilla essence and beat
- Add baking soda, salt and finally flour little by little & keep blending
- Add chocolate pieces and gently fold with a spatula
- If the dough is soft, refrigerate for about 1/2 hour until firm
- Drop the batter on the baking sheet with a spoon
- Keep enough distance between two cookies. It expands while cooking. So if there isn’t enough space you might end up getting chocolate cookie bar 🙂
- Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown
- Cook on a wire rack & serve
Till next time….happy cooking!
