Who doesn't love a chocolate chip cookie? They are soft, chewy, and chocolaty; delicious by themselves or with a glass of cold milk. I often bake them on the weekend and save them in a tupperware to snack on throughout the week. They are the perfect reward for a long day studying! Most chocolate chip cookie recipes include brown sugar, but I try to avoid buying it because it is not often used and dries out quickly. It would be a waste of money to buy brown sugar for just one recipe and then let it sit on the shelf for weeks. This recipe replaces brown sugar with just a bit of honey (which I get for free from my dining hall) to give these cookies the same deep, rich flavor that brown sugar provides.
Ingredients:
 |
| makes about 30 cookies |
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
6 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips
1 c. white sugar
2 tbsp honey
1 ¼ c. butter or margarine
Thoroughly combine the butter, honey, and sugar. Melting the butter a little bit will make this easier to do.Then, stir in the eggs and vanilla. Next, add the flour and baking soda; stir these in slowly to avoid flour from spilling out of the bowl. Lastly, add chocolate chips. Add the instructed amount first and then add more if you want to.Place small spoonfuls of dough onto a lightly greased pan. Make sure to leave about 2 inches of space between the balls of dough because the cookies will spread while baking. Bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees.
My favorite cookie! Thnx for posting it :)
