The course on haute cuisine that I have enroled in had the recipe of nestle tollhouse chocolate chip cookies and explains why you must stick to the recipe and try to exact the measurements specified. So, I decided to give it a try. The first time I made it with the exact directions and it turned out exactly like the cookies that I used to have at the Hilton in Roseville, California. I did feel really guilty eating those as they had loads of butter and sugar in them. I was happy that I had made a small batch of 15 cookies.
I was having two people, whom I am very fond of, visiting us this evening and so decided to make these cookies but decided to give them a little healthy twist. The result was different but good as well.
Preparation Time : 10 minutes

Ingredients (Makes about 24-30 cookies depending on size):
- Whole wheat flour - 1 cup + 2 tbsp
- Salt - 1/2 tsp
- Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
- Baking soda - 1/2 tsp
- Chopped nuts - 1/4 cup
- Chocolate chips - 1/4-1/2 cup
- Vanilla essence - 1/2 tsp
- Unsalted butter - 1/4 cup melted
- Granulated white sugar - 1/4 cup
- Raw brown sugar - 1/4 cup
- Egg - 1 large
How I made it :
- Preheat oven to 190 degree C.
- Prepare the baking tray. I covered a cooling tray with aluminium foil and spread some flour over it.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Beat the sugars, vanilla essence and butter for 2 minutes on high.
- Add the egg and beat well till the mixture is creamy. I beat mine a bit too much such that the mix got quite thick. This gives it a more crumbly texture.
- Add the mix from step 3 and mix till well combined.
- Shape into cookies, press in some nuts and chocolate chips. Now, if you had not beaten the egg stiff, you may have a moist dough. In that case, use a spoon to place spoonfuls on the baking tray and press in some chocolate chips and nuts.
- Bake for 11 minutes.
- Cool for 30 minutes and store in airtight containers.
