My Chocolate Chip Cookies

Very, very bad but utterly scrumptious for a special occasion. The cookies(biscuits) really need to be eaten on the same day as they do not keep well.

250g soft butter
¾ cup caster sugar
1 cup dark brown sugar
2 eggs
2ml vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1t baking powder
2 cups dark chocolate chips (semi sweet)

1. Heat oven to 170°C.
2. Beat butter with both sugars in the Kenwood Mixer until creamy.
3. While beating add eggs, one at a time.
4. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
5. Now using a wooden spoon mix in flour, baking powder and chocolate chips.
6. Spoon mounds onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. The mounds should be egg shaped – don’t flatten.
7. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
8. Expect cookies to be crunchy outside and chewy inside.
