Cookies for My Bees

I promised Aqish I’d bake the Famous Amos cookies for her. I somehow misplaced the original recipe.. (I haven’t made them for at least a year!). I told her that I don’t have the recipe. You know what she said?

 

‘Dekat computer kan ada, Ma? Carik je..’

 

*scratches my head..

how in the world does she know that we can search recipes in the net??

 

Anyway, here’s the recipe gotten from the net, as advised by Aqish:

 

FAMOUS AMOS’ CHOCOLATE COOKIES RECIPE
Ingredients
1 bar butter (approx 250g)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla essence
2 cups plain flour
2 1/2 cups oatmeal, blended to powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
340g chocolate chips
250g Chocolate bar, grated
100g nuts (your choice), chopped

 

Method
1. Preheat oven at 190C
2. Cream the butter and both sugars
3. Add eggs and vanilla, mix evenly
4. Fold in flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and soda.
5. Add chocolate chips, grated chocolate bar and nuts. Mix well (I used my hands in a food grade plastic bag, as it is too thick for my mixer).
6. Roll into small balls (around 1 inch in diameter) and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet/tray.
7. Bake for 10 minutes at 190 C.

 

When the cookies are removed, they are soft. But when left cool, it will harden up and become slightly crisp outside (but chewy inside).

 

I know its kinda last minute but trust me, its all easy peasy! J
