Foodie Friday – Choc Chip Cookies

I’m a big fan of choc chip cookies and I love being able to whip up a batch just to have in the cookie jar (like I need an excuse!). I’ve tried so many different recipes but this is, by far, my favourite. I give you “Pip’s Best Ever Choc Chip Cookies”.
(Originally found here).
Ingredients
125g salted butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 small eggs
1 or 2 drops of vanilla essence
1 3/4 cups self raising flour
250 grams ! choc chips
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 160 degrees.
2. Using an electric mixer, cream the butter with the sugars until pale.
3. Beat in the eggs and the vanilla until nicely mixed.
4. Beat in the sifted flour until mixed through.
5. Fold through the choc chips.
6. Grease or line a baking tray with baking paper.
7. Roll dough into teaspoon sized balls and pop onto the tray.
8. Bake for ten to twelve minutes.
If you like them chewy don’t let them brown. They will crisp up as they cool down. Makes about 48 – though I usually freeze some of the dough for use at a later time.
