                        Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe


Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes


Ingredients:-

• 1¼ cup Butter, at room temperature
• 1/3 cup Brown sugar
• 1/3 cup White sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla essence
• ½ tsp Salt
• 1 Egg
• 11/3 cup Plain flour, sifted
• ¼ tsp Baking powder, dissolved in 2 tsp hot water
• 1 cup Chopped nuts
• 175 gm Chocolate chips

Method:- Cream butter in an electric mixer until light. With the mixer running, slowly add brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, salt, egg, flour and dissolved baking powder. Mix until just blended. Stir in chopped nuts and chocolate chips by hand. If dough is too soft, chill it until it stiffens a little. Shape the dough into 2" diameter (no bigger) balls. Place them on a baking sheet, leaving 2" inbetween, since the dough spreads on cooking. Preheat crusty plate on 600W+GRILL for 3 minutes. Microwave cookies on the same setting for 12 minutes or until they set but are slightly soft. Let the cookies cool and harden. Store in airtight containers.
