So tonight I decided that I was in the mood for some sweets and what better sweets to eat than chocolate chip cookies! I was staying over at my boyfriend’s house and I convinced him that we needed to eat cookies (and you know make more blog posts). The recipe I had chosen was a fairly simple cookie recipe apart from the fact that it called for an obscene amount of flour…. 3 cups to me seemed like far too much and would make the dough rather dry and the cookies very hard. We added the cups of flour 1 at a time as the recipe requested mixing the dough after every addition of flour. By the 2nd cup, it was clear that the third cup would have been a poor idea so we finished off my adding 1/4 more of a cup instead. The recipe stated the cookies needed 10 minutes in the oven but we found that 12 minutes was that perfect cookie time when they are still soft coming out but harden over time. The taste test was very successful and all 4 of his roommates continued to eat all 33 cookies throughout the night. This was my first time making cookies while at university for the past 3 years, I don’t think I would make them regularly as I do try to watch my diet however they were a delicious treat.
