Chocolate Chip Cookies

Most of the days my little baker RH comes home from school with a craving to bake something. She can do by herself though I would like to watch her because electrics are involved and mostly depends on my mood or time if she would bake or so.

Today everything fell in place that others at home were lucky enough to indulge in this melt in your mouth chocolate chip cookie.

She found this recipe in a website and tried to incorporate a trick she learned from watching a famous chef in tv which turned out really well. And as I had only wheat flour at home we used that and no one noticed that either.

INGREDIENTS:

Makes 20 Cookies

2 Cups Wheat flour

11/2 Tsp Baking soda

1/2 Tsp Salt

3/4 Cup melted butter 

1 Cup Brown sugar

1/2 Cup Granulated sugar

1 Egg

2 Tblsp Mayonnaise (secret ingredient)

1 Tblsp Vanilla essence 

11/2 Cups mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

METHOD:

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet lined with parchment or butter and dust with flour. You will make 18 to 20 cookies with this measurement.

In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda and salt and keep aside.

In another bowl beat with a hand mixer ( you can use stand mixer too) at medium speed the melted butter along with the white and brown sugar until well blended.

Then add the egg, mayonnaise and vanilla essence until pale and creamy.

Now reduce the speed and mix in the flour mixture. Beat until it blends together.

Then add the chocolate chips and using a spatula mix them into the dough.

Now using an ice cream scoop, scoop out the dough and place in the cookie sheet atleast 3 inches apart.

This space is needed because the cookie spreads as it gets cooked.

Bake for about 15 to 18 mins. This time depends on your oven. So go for 15 and extend as needed.

The tootjpick inserted comes out clean. The cookies will be soft and hardens as it cools.
