Chocolate Chips Cookies by Andrea S.

   INGREDIENTS:

-250 g melted butter.

-340 g plain flour.

-150 g white sugar.

-300 g chocolate chips.

-2 eggs.

-2 tbsp milk.

-1 tsp baking soda. 1/2(a half) tsp salt.

-2 tsp vanilla essence.

 METHOD:

First, put the butter in a large bowl and add the sugar.

Add the milk, eggs and vanilla essence and mix.

Later, sift in the flour, add in the salt and baking soda, and mix to a thick dough.

Then, place dollops of dough (about 1 heaped tbsp) onto a cold baking tray. Make sure the dollops are well spaced  to allow it to spread.

Next, bake in the oven at 190ºC (375ºF) for around 8-10 minutes.

Later, remove from the oven and allow to cool for around 5 minutes until the biscuits have hardened a bit, then place on a wire rack  to cool completely.

  TIPS:

Don´t be tempted to overcook the biscuits. Depending upon your oven they may be cooked after 8 minutes, so keep an eye on them!

You can also add pecans walnuts or macadamia nuts into the dough to make nutty choc-chip bikkies.
