I'm a sucker for anything chocolate chip cookies but nothing like the ones made at home. Not even the popular, imported brands can capture the decadence of a home-made, freshly baked cookies. I still get that 'commercialized' after taste whenever I eat the supermarket brand. I still eat em anyway though. Now, after multiple attempts of recreating and pursuing the best chocolate chip cookie, I am finally resolved with this recipe. I slightly modified it from different baker bloggers AND surprisingly this came out to be the easiest one to make.
Soft and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, melted (liquid consistency)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/8-1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons honey (ting! secret's out)
1 egg
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 fine salt
Procedure
1. In a bowl, cream melted butter, brown and white sugar, until dissolved.
2. Add honey and egg, mix well. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda and fine salt.
4. Divide dry ingredients into 3 parts and add to the wet ingredients.
5. Mix using a spatula or wooden spoon, I do about three rotations after a portion of the dry ingredients so I don't overmix.
6. Add vanilla and fold in the chips. Mix a couple of times.
7. *Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or silicon mat,
3 inches apart. Maybe 6 cookies per batch.
8. Bake in a pre-heated oven, 160 degrees Celsius oven for 12 minutes, first batch then 10 minutes succeeding batches.
9. Brownish sides mean it's done. Cool for about 30 minutes in a rack.
10. Served with a cold glass of milk. Yummers.
*Since I live in a tropical humid country, I chill my dough for about 15 minutes before scooping them to my sheet. After popping the batch in the oven, I chill the remaining dough back to the fridge.
