Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies

 I had a lot of brown sugar left after making raisin bread pudding so I decided to make chocolate chip cookies. I googled "brown sugar chocolate chip cookies" and the very first hit was a recipe from Butter Cooking called Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies! Clearly, this was kismet:p

 Anyway, the recipe was fairly simple and the instructions were clear as day, although I did notice that the ingredients called for vanilla extract, but the instructions didn't say when it would be mixed in. So I just mixed in the vanilla extract with the egg.


Baking time was a mere 10 minutes so before I knew it, I had four PERFECT chocolate chip cookies to nosh on! I swear, and I'm not exaggerating, these were Mrs. Fields level in yumminess. Who knew that our tiny electric oven could churn out something this drool-worthy?

I still have a huge ball of cookie dough left and I'll be bringing a huge chunk of that over to my parents' house (a.k.a. as "in the BF") and baking it there for the whole fambam to consume. I can only bake 4 cookies at a time in our tiny oven and I don't want to keep on baking small batches because our electricity bill will shoot up and also because there's a diabetic in our house who refuses to give up his sweets.


I give these cookies: 5/5 for yumminess and 5/5 for presentation.

I'm feeling a little daring after this successful attempt and I'm going to go all out and try to make lasagna next time. I think the trick when learning how to cook/bake is to start making things you like to eat, and so lasagna it is!
