Ingredients
115 gm butter at room temperature
50 gm caster sugar
110gm brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
170 gm plain flour
1/2 tsp bicarb of soda
1 pinch of salt
170 gm chocolate chips
55gm nuts of your choice
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease the baking sheet. With an electric mixer cream the butter and two sugars together until light and fluffy. In another bowl mix egg and vanilla and gradually beat into butter and sugar mixture. Sift over flour, bicarb of soda, salt and mix. Add chocolate chips and nuts and mix to combine well. Place heaped teaspoonfuls of the dough on the prepared sheets. Bake until lightly colored, 10-15 minutes. Transfer to rack to cool and your chocolate chip cookies are ready to be enjoyed with a nice cup of hot simmering coffee.
