Jason: Chocolate Chip Cookies
When I was a kid, one of the highlights of the
holiday season for me was when my mother made chocolate chip cookies. She would
makes dozens
and dozens of them, and I would eat almost as many!
Now
I can make them for myself here in Japan with my oven. The ingredients are commonly
available in supermarkets, though the chocolate chips will most likely need to
be bought in an import supermarket.
Ingredients :
2 cups chocolate chips
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 sticks (1 cup) butter, room temperature
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Directions :
1. Pre-heat oven to
190 degrees.
2. In a large bowl combine flour and baking soda, and then set aside.
3. In another large bowl combine sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract and
butter, mixing thoroughly.
5. Add flour and baking soda from the other large bowl, small amounts at
a time, mixing completely.
6. Mix chocolate chips into the cookie dough.
8. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
9. After baking, allow cookies to cool for a few minutes, and then
transfer to wax paper or aluminium foil to cool completely.
10. Enjoy!
Over the past two years I’ve baked many batches of
chocolate chip cookies during the holiday season to give to my friends here in
Japan. It’s a holiday tradition I enjoy very much!
