Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yesterday in home economics we made Chocolate chip cookies. The people I worked with were Ava and Jay. The positives of yesterday were that we were really good at our clean up and we were also good at our personal hygiene. The negatives of yesterday were that it was a bit hard to get everyone in our group to listen because we were so keen of getting the food into the oven. Next time I would try and make sure that the butter is exactly the right amount because it was 1 gram off and even though it didn't really impact the final result of the cookies it still annoyed me. One thing that went really well was that we washed the dishes as we went which helped us finish really quickly.

Here is the recipe:

200g butter
1 cup Chelsea White Sugar
1 cup Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla essence
3 cups flour
pinch of salt
1 tsp baking powder
2 cups chocolate chips
• Method

Melt butter, and add both sugars and cream these together. Beat in the eggs and vanilla then mix in the dry ingredients. Roll into medium sized balls, making sure the mixture is not too wet! Put on a well greased baking tray. They shouldn't spread too much so flatten slightly. Bake at 180° for 8-10 minutes.

Tip: you can easily half this recipe. Or roll half into a log, wrap in cling film and freeze. Cut into 15 pieces while still frozen and bake.
