Is Milo getting less chocolatey and more milky&oily? Used to love drinking Milo every morning but find it not as good as before, anyone find it so as well?
I am talking about “Milo kosong” not those 3-in-1 packets.

Choc-Chip-Cookie1

Dorie Greenspan’s Chocolate Chip Recipe, taken from Kait’s Plate.

Choc-Chip-Cookie2

cheapest unsalted butter i could find from Carrefour, RM6 for 200g bar. The recipe calls for 230g, so i also reduce the amount of flour etc

Choc-Chip-Cookie3

slight bumpy ride in making this choc chip cookie, the butter clump all into the whisk paddle, used scrapper to scrap them all out. Above is caster sugar, brown sugar and unsalted butter

Choc-Chip-Cookie4

Vanilla essence and 2 eggs added.

Choc-Chip-Cookie5

Flour(added in 3 batches) and choc chip added

Choc-Chip-Cookie6

Tablespoonful few inches apart

Choc-Chip-Cookie7

Freezed for a while till it is stiff outside. I tried baking a batch without freezing it, but was put into fridge a while, it spread much and cookies touches at the edge.

Choc-Chip-Cookie8

Baking

Choc-Chip-Cookie9

It helps to have 2 oven.

Choc-Chip-Cookie10

Finished product, the hershey’s semi-sweet chocolate is goey even when the cookie is cooled.

Quite nice, a high calorie, high fat treat.
