So yummy yummy
While in my tummy
But chocolate chips
End up on my hips
End up on my hips
Those naughty chips
I'll have to excercise
And try to be wise
And try to be wise
Avoiding tasty fries
Apple pies with cream
Diets make me scream
Diets make me scream
Such a tedious regime
Shedding chocolate chips
Off my expanding hips
Here's my version of Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 4 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 Bitter-sweet Chocolate chips-I use Ghirardelli http://www.ghirardelli.com/
- 1 cup Walnuts chopped very fine into a powder. I use a my hand held immersion blender attachment to quickly chop up the walnuts
Directions: pre heat oven to 375F/190.56C
Combine flour,baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat melted butter, sugars and vanilla in a large bowl until creamy. ( I just use a fork ). Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition ( I'm still using a fork ). Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips and chopped walnuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
( I use parchment paper ).
( I use parchment paper ).
Bake for 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes and transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Yields approximately 5 dozen cookies.
These cookies can be enjoyed with a nice glass of milk or even a glass of red wine.
