Choc Chip Cookies with Orange Zest


I hardly do any baking, but once in a while it's a group activity with the kids. The suggestion from my daughter was initially strawberry cookies, but since we didn't have all the ingredients we settled on easy peasy chocolate chip cookies, but with some orange zest (that was mom's contribution!).

It didn't take even 10 mins to prepare and the results were more like madeleines in texture rather than crispy chewy cookies. Not sure if this is a bad or good thing? So this was our baking attempt today. Mixing and sticking in the oven while we ate our lunch. Then cooled down and ready to eat as soon as lunch was over. Was perfect timing!

So for 10 cookies:
75 gms light brown sugar
75 gms soft butter
1 egg
150 gms self raising flour
choc chips
zest of an orange

1. Mix the sugar and butter together
2. Add in beaten egg
3. Now sift in the flour, choc chips and zest.
4. Put the oven on at 180, and grease a baking tray. Drop small spoonfuls on the tray and bake for 10 mins.



Enjoy!
