I've been really wanting biscuits, or cookies as some people call them. And I still have some chocolate bars lying around so I thought why not?

For this recipe I used:

• 100g butter
• 100g caster sugar
• 1 egg
• Vanilla essence (half a teaspoon)
• 175g plain flour
• 175g chocolate chips - I just used chopped up pieces of chocolate

This recipe really gave a lot for so few ingredients, I got 12 biscuits out of it!

Where's this recipe from though?

So this time I don't have a link to give for the recipe unfortunately, and that's because I got it from a children's cooking book called "The Usborne Beginner's Cookbook".

The Usborne Beginner's Cookbook

I know it's meant for children, but I love the style it has. although it doesn't have actual pictures for you to follow through the recipe, it has cute illustrations such as this

On the back of the book, the price is £12.99 which is 77.94 STEEM I think? But I've seen it sold second hand at £2.39, which is 14.34 STEEM.

My progress pictures!

So, to start, I had to beat the sugar and butter together. I had left the butter out beforehand to get it to room temperature, and cut it up a bit before using it. This made it a lot easier to beat together haha.

Next was the egg, sugar and butter all mixed in, this was honestly such an easy recipe. I also added the vanilla essence here too!

Lastly, after I added and mixed in the flour, I cut up and added the chocolate pieces in.

The cookie dough!

Now this picture is of the biscuit dough on the tray, I only put 6 of them at first, and did the second batch after.

The final result!

So I got 12 biscuits out of it, just like the recipe said I would. Really delicious, simple and quick! I'll definitely be doing this one again soon.

Final result!

Have a nice day!
