Hello Pam and Larry!
So this morning before work I decided to make some chocolate chip cookies.
This is a recipe I found online and have modified a bit as it was a little more dough-y than the usual butter biscuits I make. But it was lots of fun and feedback from my newspaper colleagues (so far) has been positive.
Put on oven to 180 and grease 4 biscuit trays or line with baking paper and use the butter wrappers to grease the trays or paper.
Ingredients
300g softened butter
1 cup caster sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 tsp vanilla extract
3 eggs
3 and 1/2 cups plain flour - sifted
1 cup dark chocolate bits
1 cup milk chocolate bits
Beat 150g softened butter, caster and brown sugars and vanilla extract for three minutes or the ingredients are mixed well and smooth.
Beat in eggs.
Add plain flour in two batches - your mixer might be getting a big bogged here (my old sunbeam certainly was, so i had to keep de-clogging the beaters.)
Stir in 1/2 cup dark choc bits and 1/2 cup milk choc bits until evenly distributed.
Don disposable gloves and spoon small balls of the mixture into balls and place on the lined trays and press slightly. Press one chocolate bit on top for decor.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until light golden and cooked. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week - but i think they'll go pretty quickly!
