Choc Chunk Cookies
July 21, 2005
I just made these cookies again. I may rewrite the recipe for posting at some point, that one I copied from a word doc from the person who emailed it to me and there have been a) some translation problems and b) the comical reference to a kitten is a bit confusing and c) I use it as a base recipe with lots of variations so would be good to include them. The recipe makes between 80 - 100 cookies depending on size, I've just cooked 24 and packed up the rest in several batches for the freezer.
Usually the chocolate I use is a 375g bag of nestle choc bits. Today I used some cooking chocolate discs in white, regular and dark chocolate I had in the cupboard so they are triple choc chunk cookies.
Sometimes I make the whole dough up, break into parcels, and put different stuff in each, like some choc ones, some coconut and apricot and white choc ones etc, yum.
I am coming to the end of my two days off that I was going to use for some serious planning and organizing but have done none of either so far. Have been mostly sitting around, knitting, and watching not very good tv! I watched super size me again yesterday though which is very good and went out to buy Fast Food Nation, but there was non in stock so I bought Morgan Spurlocks book instead. I wonder if he has a blog? I have rethunk my less blog reading strategy.. I think what I should do is cut down my craft blogs to a manageable number (which I have, more or less) and then include some other blogs.. Maybe a programming one or two, a trading one or two, and some others.
Anyhoo, I'm going to go take a photo.. Here you are.. My wendy dennis yarn rolled into a ball (looks much better huh?? I got some strange looks from the photo of the hank, admittedly from non knitters), the packages of dough, and the baked cookies.
