|
Jenna wants to make chocolate chip cookies. Can anyone recommend a recipe? I want proper biscuity, crummy cookies (like Boasters or similar) not squidgy, chewy ones.
She will only eat the mixture, and thus doesn’t much care what sort of cookies they are. |

Did you see the article about eating raw dough and e-coli? Apparently you're not supposed to do it as the flour could contain e-coli. The cookie dough you can buy to eat has already been treated so there is no risk of it.
Just thought I'd let you know. |

This is the recipe I use. Unfamiliar with Boasters so no idea how it compares.
Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies
1/2 pound sweet butter
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups chocolate chips
Cream butter and sugars together.
Add eggs, one at a time.
Add vanilla.
Combine flour and baking soda. Add gradually to butter / sugar / egg.
Add chocolate chips.
Drop by spoonful on ungreased cookie sheet and bake 9 to 11 minutes in 375 degree Fahrenheit oven until lightly browned at edges.
Let cool for one minute, then move to wire rack to finish cooling.
Note: I portion these with a large-ish scoop, to make 18 cookies that bake for 15 minutes. Probably double that if portioning by spoonful. |

The scare about not licking the bowl was in the US of A and only involved flour from one mill. |

Well, I must have a cast iron stomach and the constitution of a shark.... and I don't have 3 second rule about dropped food, it' closer to 30 seconds.  |

Thank you, that’s very considerate. I think we are probably immune, given Jenna’s wish to eat all baking raw, and my, um, relaxed approach to housekeeping. I shall try jam lady’s recipe, and see how it goes. |
