Home economics - Chocolate chip cookies

Hello,
Today in home economics we had been baking chocolate chip cookies. This was super easy and quick. Here is the recipe for the cookies:

Ingredients:

100g butter
1/2 cup Chelsea white sugar
1/2 cup Chelsea soft brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 1/2 cup flour
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup chocolate chip

Method:
  1. Softened butter, and add both sugars and cream these together. Beat in the eggs and vanilla then mix in the dry ingredients
  2. Roll the dough into medium-sized balls, making sure the mixture is not too wet. Put on a well-greased baking tray.
  3. They shouldn't spread too much so flatten slightly. Bake at 180℃ for 8-10 mins
Tip: You can easily half this recipe. Or roll half into a log, wrap in cling wrap and freeze. Cut into 15 pieces while still frozen and bake.

Sensory evaluation: The taste of the cookies were really good, they tasted a bit bland but they were very soft and warm. When I let them cool a bit they were a bit hard but had tasted a bit better and I could taste the vanilla.

Conclusion: I had come early to class so I could be back with my original group, we had already had our ingredient ready and started straight away. This was an easy recipe, especially with 4 people. We each got into roles without even talking and had already got the dough ready. Then we chose who was checking on the cookies so they wouldn't get burnt. So, in conclusion, my group had worked really well and the cookies had turned out awesome.

Here are some photos through our making of the cookies:

  1. Thanks for sharing this Blog Post, Milan. Great to see you have included the recipe for these delicious Cookies. I am interested in your comment about the Cookies tasting a bit bland while they were still warm from the oven. Can you think of a reason why this could be?
