Chocolate Chip Cookies


Ok, ni bukan sbb x sabar2 raya....not meant utk biskut raya pon. Kalau boleh simpan sampai raya, that's good!

Buat biskut ni sbb melayan kerenah sikembar. Hari sabtu diorg nak sgt ikut Uncle & Auntie gi Frankfurt. Sy x bg sbb Mat & Liza nak gi shopping brg, utk bawak balik Malaysia....takkan nak angkut diorg lak. Dah la posa, penat lak nanti melayan kerenah budak dua org tu. Sy lak malas nak pegi, nak cari apa lagi pon...bukan ada bazaar Ramadhan pon kat Frankfurt tu.

So demi nak pujuk diorg, sy ajak la buat chocolate chip cookies ni.

Resepi sy amik kat Joy of Baking.

And cut & paste resepinya:

Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe:

1 cup (2 sticks) (226 grams) unsaltedbutter,room temperature

3/4cup (150 grams) granulated whitesugar

3/4cup (160 grams) firmly packed light brownsugar

2 largeeggs

1 1/2teaspoons purevanillaextract

2 1/4cups (295 grams) all-purposeflour

1teaspoonbaking soda

1/2teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups (270 grams) semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup (100 grams) walnuts or pecans, coarsely chopped (optional)


Chocolate Chip Cookies:Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) with rack in center of oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add the white and brown sugars and beat until fluffy (about 2 minutes). Beat in eggs, one at a time, making sure to beat well after each addition. Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated.Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and beat until incorporated, adding the chocolate chips and nuts (if using) about half way through mixing. If you find the dough very soft, cover and refrigerate until firm (about 30 minutes).

For large cookies, use about a 2 tablespoon ice cream scoop or with two spoons, drop about 2 tablespoons of dough (35 grams) onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake about 12 - 14 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Cool completely on wire rack.

Makes about 4 dozen - 3 inch round cookies.

Note: You can freeze this dough. Form the dough into balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze and then place the balls of dough in a plastic bag, seal, and freeze. When baking, simply place the frozen balls of dough on a baking sheet and bake as directed - may have to increase baking time a few minutes.
