Chocolate Chip Cookies
 
Soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies with ice cream.
Ingredients
For the cookies:
  • 1 cup (230g) softened, unsalted, butter
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1½ cups (300g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2½ cups (310g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Chocolate chips, to taste
Method
Prepare the cookies:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugars, eggs and vanilla. Sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Combine the wet and dry ingredients. Stir in the chocolate chips. With your fingers, place golf-ball-sized dough portions 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 9 minutes, or until the edges are light brown. Resist the urge to bake the cookies for longer than 9 minutes, even if they appear underbaked (trust me, you'll regret it - don't even go 10 minutes!)
