3 Delicious Recipes for Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookies
Do you have a favorite cookie? I always find myself thinking which cookies should I make and I cannot just stop at one. There are so many delicious combinations of flavours, how can you choose just one?
​
That is why instead of just sharing one recipe for chocolate chip cookies, I have decided to share 3 different variations. All these recipes are easy, fast and really effortless to make. Choose your favorite or make them all, and there will be enough to make some friends and family members happy :)
​
While testing these recipes, I was thinking that my favorite will be the chocolate chip cookie with hazelnuts and raisins, because I love that combination. However, I was surprised to find that my absolute favorite was the white chocolate chocolate chip cookies with cranberries. The combination of white chocolate and cranberry, sooo delicious, I couldn´t resist taste testing 2 right after they were baked :) Don´t blame me, try it yourself and you will see why :)

DIRECTIONS
​
-
For the above three recipe variations follow the same steps.
-
Melt butter and allow to cool.
-
Whisk eggs in a medium bowl lightly with a fork, add the cooled butter and whisk again shortly.
-
Add the sugar and the vanilla and mix it in.
-
Combine the dry ingredients and start adding them slowly while constantly mixing. You might want to switch to a spatula at the end to help you mix everything in well.
-
Once you have a smooth batter you can add the extras to it (dark chocolate, nuts & raisins or white chocolate & cranberries or white chocolate, dark chocolate & candy cane). Mix well until just combined.
-
Form the cookies using an ice cream scooper or a tablespoon. Then roll them in your hands and flatten them into a baking tray covered with parchment paper (see video). Make sure to place the cookies well apart, maximum of 12 cookies per tray.
-
Bake the cookies in 160°C bottom top heat in the middle shelf of the oven for 20-25 minutes.
-
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before removing from the baking tray onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
-
Store the cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh for longer.
