How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies

3rd May 2020 Comments : 4

I’ve found myself baking a lot during lockdown. Anyone else? I find it very therapeutic but it’s not great for my health eating it all. Still, I’m baking but this batch of chocolate chip cookies I decided to give away. Where I live, there are so many delivery men arriving every day with parcels that neighbours or myself are expecting. I thought I could give something back so I left packages of cookies downstairs by the entrance with a note saying they’re free to enjoy.

Many of you asked for the chocolate chip cookie recipe on Instagram when I shared a photo on my stories so I thought I’d share i here as well for everyone to enjoy. This recipe makes 20 cookies but you can obviously half it or quarter it if you want to make less. You can also save some of the dough in the freezer and take out when you fancy. That way you hopefully minimize the risk of eating all the cookies in one sitting.

Lately the shops have been low on chocolate chip stocks so I’m not surprised if many others are making these cookies. They’re so easy and so tasty! Last week I used chocolate buttons instead and it worked equally as well. You just have to smash them up into smaller pieces first.

  6. Tear each ball in half and place on oven proof paper (rough/uneven side up)

How do you enjoy your chocolate chip cookies? I prefer them slightly warm still so that the chocolate sort of melts. If you leave some to eat another day, you can pop them back into the oven for a bit if you like them served like me. If you use this recipe, let me know as I’d love to see your creations.

    I saw the cookies on Instagram and thought it was such a great idea. I would have borrowed your idea if I was living in a flat, because it is great. For me, baking almost daily is not something new, but I don’t bake desserts that often. I bake veggies, like cauliflower steak or swede, chips, fake meats, this kind of things.

      When it comes to baking I’ve definitely got a sweet tooth. I admire you for baking daily, I definitely don’t have time or the stomach for that, ha.
