(no subject)
so, sitting around awfully depressed & caffiened up, i decide the only way to make me happy is to bake.
"cookies!" i think. oh, lovely lovely cookies.
but alas, we have no baking soda. or butter.
so, whats a girl to do?
2AM chocolate white chocolate chunk cookies:
(can be doubled, trippled, quadrupled as seen fit)
1/2 cup margarine or equiv.
3/8 cup white sugar - caster if pos.
1/2 cup brown sugar.
1 egg
1/2 tablespoon (yes, tablespoon, not teaspoon) of vanilla - real vanilla, none of this faking it bullshit.
1 cup of self raising flour, pref wholemeal.
3/4 cup cocoa. if you have the good stuff, then the good stuff.
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt to taste
white chocolate. around... 100-150grams. a block of the stuff.
ok. preheat oven to 175C (around... 350F? i dunno.).
cut up white chocolate. don't use those shitty little chocolate drops, cut up your own damn chocolate. it's so much funkier.
eat chocolate.
cream marg and sugars til all nice and fluffy and, well, creamy. beat in the egg. stir in vanilla.
combine flour, cocoa (sift first) and salt. add to the creamed mixture.
add the funky chunky chocolate bits and stir stir stir.
eat mixture. mmm. tasty.
put remaining mixture on (ungreased, cooled) baking trays in whatever size you like, but i recon a little smaller than a tablespoon is very very nice.
bake in oven for around 8/9 minutes, turning the tray 180 degrees halfway through.
when done, eat one really quickly with a spoon and burn your tongue.
leave the rest on trays for 5-10 minutes, then remove and place on paper towels.
how good would that be with macadamia nuts?! mmmmmm
