June 14, 2007: Choc-Chip Cookies

Kingaroy to munch on piece she camped as well as worked. This calendar week I bring been depending on Fiona's cute piddling machine, as well as I decided to supply it amongst a box of home-made choc-chip cookies to limited my appreciation.

I'm non inward the habit of calling biscuits "cookies" but I mean value of this every bit a really American recipe. No, non because the cookies come upwardly out the size of dinner plates! I brand 'em small. It's because these are only the form of affair that a wholesome sitcom mom would introduce a gaggle of children amongst later school, accompanied yesteryear a drinking glass of milk each. Maybe moreso inward the 1950s than now, but I'm certain they'd nonetheless expect at habitation inward an episode of 7th Heaven. I've had this recipe for most x years as well as it's proved to travel a crowd-pleaser many times. The cookies are sweet, but amongst the lightly toasted border of brownish sugar, packed amongst chocolate chips as well as almond chunks, as well as filled out amongst oatmeal thus that they sit down comfortably inward the breadbasket rather than poking yous sharply amongst super-sugary regret. (Unless yous swallow 8 of them, thus they'll nonetheless exercise that.) The master copy quantities were enormous as well as thus the ones below are the half-batch I ever make. Even this half-batch is a monster, producing 3 boxes full! One for Fiona, i to portion for afternoon tea at the lab, as well as i to portion amongst Michael when he arrives habitation tonight.

Choc-chip cookies

2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 loving cup butter
1 loving cup raw sugar
1 loving cup brownish sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups manifestly flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon bicarb soda
250g package of black choc chips
1 1/2 cups almonds, roughly chopped

Preheat the oven to 190 deg C.

Using a nutrient processor, blend the rolled oats to a powder.

In a large bowl, cream the butter as well as 2 sugars. Add the eggs as well as vanilla as well as crunch again.

In a classify bowl, mix together the flour, oatmeal, salt, baking pulverization as well as bicarb soda. Gradually crunch them into the butter mixture. Stir inward the choc chips as well as almonds - the biscuit mixture is likely quite strong as well as this could travel difficult. I "chopped it up" a flake amongst my wooden spoon to distribute the chocolate as well as nuts.

Line a baking tray amongst paper. Roll teaspoonfuls of the mixture into balls as well as identify them on the tray, a duo of inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until they just larn a piddling golden. Don't worry if they don't expect properly gear upwardly every bit they come upwardly out of the oven because they volition theater upwardly every bit they cool! These biscuits volition travel soft as well as slightly chewy - bake for a duo of extra minutes for a crunchier cookie.
