Simple Chocolate Chip Cookies


When I took these pretty cookies out of the oven I just couldn't resist and ate nearly one half of them while they were still hot. The sides were golden and crispy while the inside was very moist and full of melted chocolate. Please try them. They're amazing.


Simple Chocolate Chip Cookies
makes about 40-45 medium size cookies

2 cups white flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
a pinch of nutmeg
12 Tabsp butter or margarine (melted)
1 cup sugar (they were a little bit too sweet, next time I'm going to reduce the amount of sugar. Use 1 cup of sugar if you want your cookies to be very sweet.)
1 egg
chocolate chips, as much as desired (I used about 100gm)

Preheat oven to 190C. Whisk together melted butter, sugar and the egg. Sieve over flour together with baking powder, salt and nutmeg, mix well until you have a thick but soft dough. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Line 2 baking sheets with baking paper. Form the cookie dough into small balls (I was using about 1 tablespoon of dough for 1 cookie) and place them on the lined baking sheets.
Bake for about 15 minutes until golden.
Let cool completely (Or eat them all immediately when they're still hot. If you are as unpatient as I am.)
Enjoy.
