My husband had a boys night tonight, and I was left at home with my two babies. This doesn't happen often and I decided after making sure they were both tucked in to make cookies. What is better then a glass of red wine and some chocolate chip cookies (and of course a chick flick)? I decided since I hadn't tried chocolate chip cookies since starting this blog that I would to see if I could come up with the perfect recipe.
Ingredients: (Makes 12 bigger sized cookies)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Mix together Butter and the brown sugar and white sugar until they are all creamed together.
- Mix One beaten egg into the mixture. Add Vanilla.
- Dissolve the baking soda into the hot water add it to the batter along with the salt.
- Stir in the flour (be patient it might seem too dry at first), before that is finished mixing pour in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Roll the dough into cookie sized balls, then mush them into the shape you want them to be- these cookies don't spread out well so you can make them exactly like you want them at this point. Put them on an un-greased cookie sheet.
- Cook for 13 minutes. These are crunchy on the outside with the inside still chewy so that's what you are looking for before you take them out.
Review:
I have made some bad chocolate chip cookies in my time, these on the other hand are excellent. They have a wonderful texture, usually when I make cookies they are too cakey for my taste but these are chewy on the inside with a bit of crunch on the outside. I have finally found a keeper of a recipe for chocolate chip cookies!
*On a side note, I have changed the format of the recipes to have ingredients listed above the actual recipe. Leave me a comment if you hate it and I will go back to the old way- If I don't hear anything I'm keeping it.
