Chocolate chips
Right, listen up! We're taking a classic cookie and giving it an Indian twist. These Chocolate Chip Cookies will have a hint of cardamom and a touch of coconut, making them an absolute delight. Perfect for any occasion, but don’t mess it up!
Ingredients
- 200g all-purpose flour
- 100g unsalted butter, softened
- 150g brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 100g chocolate chips
- 50g shredded coconut
- 1 tsp ground cardamom
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Get that oven fired up to 180°C (350°F). You want it hot, not lukewarm!
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a bloody great mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and brown sugar. Beat it until it's creamy—don’t just stir it like a coward! Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground cardamom, and salt. Make sure it’s mixed properly—no one wants clumps of baking soda in their cookies!
- Bring It Together: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined—don’t overdo it! You want to maintain a bit of air in there.
- Add the Chocolate Chips and Coconut: Fold in those chocolate chips and shredded coconut. Don’t just dump them in; gently fold them so they’re evenly distributed.
- Shape the Cookies: Use a spoon to scoop out portions of dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Give them some space; they need room to spread!
- Bake: Pop them in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they’re golden brown. Keep an eye on them—burnt cookies are a crime!
- Cool Down: Once done, take them out and let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Don’t go munching on them straight away!
There you have it! Chocolate Chip Indian Cookies that pack a punch with flavor. Serve them up and watch everyone devour them! Just remember, cooking is about passion and precision, so don’t slack off. Get in that kitchen and show those ingredients who’s boss!
