Hellllloooooooooo!!!!!
SSHHH - don't look at the date of my last post and then at today's date and then subtract one from the other (which from which... don't ask me, I'm a bear!) and then say something about how long it's been. In short - don't judge. I'm a very slow typist!
And I bring cookies. Cookies make everything better! This is my favouritest ever choc chip cookie recipe cause it's more like shortbread than cookie and i looooooooooove shortbread!
Bill's Shortbready Choc Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 200g ( 7 oz) butter (that's unsalted butter folks - the real stuff not margarine)
- 1/2 cup icing sugar
- 1 tspn vanilla essence
- 2 cups plain flour
- 1/2 cup almond meal
- 1/2 tspn baking powder
- 150g (5.3 oz ) chocolate chips
- Using electric mixer, beat the butter, icing sugar and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Slowly and gently beat in the flour, almond meal and baking powder until it sort of comes together. At this point it will look mostly crumbly
- Add the choc chips and then use your paws (or hands if you are hoomin) to bring the mixture together into a smooth dough
- Take tablespoon fulls of the mixture and form into a rough disc, and place onto a baking paper lined baking tray
- Bake cookies in a pre-heated 180 C (356 F) oven for 12 to 15 minutes until lightly golden
- Cool on a wire rack and stand guard to protect them
And here we go BEAR STYLE........ A Recipe In Pictures......
Beat the butter and sugar........
Add the flour, almond meal and baking powder......
The electric mixer will only get it this far.....
After adding the choc chips, you gotta squish it all together. If you don't like getting your paws dirty, this is where hoomins come in really handy......
Ready to go into the oven.........
Make sure to never miss a photo bomb opportunity!
Here they are, all cooked and lightly golden......
Now you gotta stand guard so nobody eats your cookies while they cool.... they are ESPECIALLY nommy hot out of the oven with the choc chips still melty and gooey *drools*......
