First frickin post... (Chocolate Chip Cookie)

...of course it needs to be about a chocolate chip cookie.

Our go-to, superrrr easy to remember recipe.


Stuff You Need:
.

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup melted unsalted butter

1 1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 pc egg (room temperature)

1 pc egg yolk (room temperature)

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips 

Sooooo... How to go about in making yourself some kickass CCC. 

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. (Hirap no?) 

Mix the sugar with the butter. (Pwedeng gumamit ng mixer, o kaya mano-mano na lang.) Then add the egg and egg yolk and vanilla. (the wet stuff)


***The original recipe called for 1 C packed brown sugar and 1/2 C white sugar. That is a lot of sugar. A little too sweet for me so I changed them to 1 1/4 C brown sugar instead. Besides it's easier to just measure just 1 type of sugar. You can adjust the sugar to suit your tastebuds. Pero wag na, promise.

Mix together the flour, baking soda and salt. (the dry stuff) 


Gradually mix in the dry stuff with the wet stuff until the whole thing comes together and looks like a big whopping mound of cookie dough. Mix in the chocolate chips and then EAT! I mean put the mixture in the fridge for about an hour (to prevent them from going flat when baked). 


Scoop the dough using an ice cream scoop (for uniform sized cookies) onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper, and let 'em bake in the oven for about  13-15 minutes depending on the cookie sizes you made (the bigger/fatter the cookie the longer it takes to bake). Remove from the oven when edges start to brown a bit and let them cool completely. Orrr.... have a  cold glass of milk ready and be ready to polish off half the batch in no time. Enjoy. :)
