Simple Cookies

Simplicity is best. And cookies are definity the ultimate proof of that. I mean, who doesn’t love melting chocolate chips ? 😍 Well, my flatmate doesn’t but that’s another story. I made these cookies yesterday and they: 1)are easy to make. You probably have all the ingredients already and you can replace the chocolate chips with raisins (even though, your friends might hate you for being tricked it’s chocolate when it’s really raisins) and 2)can be either soft or crunchier, depending on how you like them. But enough talking, let’s get into serious things shall we?

              Ingredients (makes about 20 cookies)

1 ½ cup of all purpose flour // ½ cup sugar // ½ cup softened butter or margarine // 1 tsp baking powder // 1 tsp vanilla extract // 2/3 cup chocolate chips // 2 large eggs // Optional: 2-3 tsp milk of choice

Instructions

In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar and baking powder // Beat the eggs with the vanilla extract, and add them // Mix everything together by hand // Add the butter or margarine and continue mixing // Add the chocolate chips // If needed, you can add a little bit of milk to enable the dough to come together. It’s normal if the dough is slightly greasy // On a greased baking tin, add the cookies // Bake for 20 min at 350F (for a softer texture) or until the edges are golden brown (25 min), for a more crunchy texture // Enjoy 😊
