Chocolate Chip Cookies!

I got the kick for baking again.. And baked some chocolate chip cookies.. To my satisfaction it tastes good! Hee.. Ok la, to be modest, the cookies aren't that bad..

Basic mixture proportions:
- 50g butter (advised to use SCS butter)
- 50g sugar
- 100g self raising flour
- ½ egg mixed with ½ teaspoon vanilla essence
- Hershey's mini chocolate chips (strongly recommended brand)
- Oven temperature: 165℃

Method:
1. Pre-heat oven, sift the flour.

2. Melt the butter over low heat till it turns light brown. Cool slightly before adding the sugar and mix well. Then, add in the egg, mixing evenly with a little added at a time.

3. Add in half the flour, mix well. Add in the chocolate chips, mix a little. Finally, add in all the remaining flour, mixing well to form a stift dough.

4. Shape a proportion of the mixture into a small balls. Place on the baking tray and leave to bake for about 20 to 25 mins - duration may vary from oven to oven, so does the temperature. Leave some space betwen the mixture on the baking tray to allow for "expansion" while baking.

5. Wait for the cookies to be cooled - it's natural for fresh-baked cookies from the oven to be a little soft to the texture, once it's cooled it will harden.

Fresh from the oven...


The temptation...

Generously filled with chocolate chips!
