My favourite cookies

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

I looooove these cookies, and when I make them, they only last for less than an hour as me and my kids finish them off as soon as they're cooled...:D

Ingredients:

150 g butter

1 1/2 cups self-raising flour

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup caster (white) sugar

1 egg yolk

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup chocolate chips

المقادير:

150 غم زبدة

كوب ونصف طحين بالخميرة

ربع كوب سكر اسمر

ثلث كوب سكر ابيض مطحون

صفار بيضة

ملعقة شاي فانيلا

كوب حبيبات الشكولاته

Method:

• Using a mixer, beat butter, sugars and yolk until creamy

• add flour and chips, mix with your hand or stir with a spoon

• roll mixture (around one tbs) into ball, press each ball

• Bake for 15 minutes
• tip: as my cookies bake in the oven, I further press them so they are not very thick in the middle.

Loaf or roll, what should I call it??

I love this loaf, it is soft inside and kind of crispy outside. These ingredients should give you two medium-sized loaf, I've done one and it came out huge, but nonetheless, I really liked it.

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tbs olive oil

1 tbs brown sugar (I've seen it used in many bread-baking so I gave it a try)

1 tbs yeast

1 tsp salt

around 1 and 1/4 cups water

Method:

• Mix water and yeast
• Mix flour, sugar and salt. Add water and yeast, and knead
• Add oil and knead for around 10 minutes
• sprinkle flour on the dough and cover for one hour

sorry I don't have a picture before the doubling of size

• After one hour, roll the dough into a long-shaped bread and cover for other 30 minutes
• Now cut the top of the loaf using a knife into three lines
• Bake the dough for around 40 minutes or until it is ready
• leave to cool before serving

I know it is a bit pale, but I am an impatient person.
