There is something so homely and warm about classic chocolate chip cookies. I think the scent of vanilla mixed with butter and of course chocolate sets an unmistakable calming atmosphere that I dare anyone to resist. I say to use Nestle chocolate drops here only because I feel they are the perfect size and they seem to maintain their shape when baked (obviously use whatever chocolate you like, however).
Preheat oven to 190 degrees C.
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
120g butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
250g Nestle chocolate drops
In a medium bowl sift the flour, baking soda and salt, then mix together and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars together until you have a soft creamy paste. Beat in the egg and then the vanilla.
Fold in the dry ingredients and then the chocolate drops.
Using an ice cream scoop, distribute even mounds of cookie dough onto a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
Set aside to cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
