Mocha Chocolate Chip Cookies



It's been ages since I have baked a cookie!! The last I had baked were the Chocolate cookies. So, decided to bake one. The original recipe adds chopped walnuts in the cookie..... Since we are not walnut lovers, I decided to skip that part....
Ingredients:
Recipe Adapted from: Chocolate by Parragon Books

Unsalted Butter - 1/2 cup
Light brown sugar - 1/2 cup, generous
Castor sugar/Granulated sugar - 1/2 cup, scant
Vanilla essence - 1 tsp
Instant coffee granules - 1 tbsp, dissolved in 1 tbsp hot water
Egg - 1
All- purpose flour - 1 1/2 cups
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Baking soda - 1/4 tsp
White chocolate chips - 1/2 cup, scant

Method:
  • Preheat oven to 180 C. Grease the cookie sheets.
  • Put the butter, light brown sugar and castor sugar in a bowl and beat until light and fluffy.
  • Then add the vanilla extract, coffee and egg one by one and beat until fluffy.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and baking soda into the mixture and fold in carefully.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Spoon heaping teaspoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, allowing room for the cookies to spread.
  • Bake for 10-15 mins, until crisp on the outside but still soft inside.
  • Let cool on the cookie sheets for some time and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Pansache Dhonas/ Jackfruit Cake

After everybody had their share, I had little left in the fridge and so decided to bake this Goan cake - Pansache Dhonas, which I had penned down from Raksha's Kitchen some months back. I would say this cake is definitely a healthy one as it uses no maida, sugar or butter.... The cake tasted quite different from the normal ones and it was indeed yummy! Ingredients: Recipe Source: Raksha's Kitchen Jackfruit pulp - 2 cups Grated coconut - 1 cup Salt - 1/2 tsp Rava - 1 cup Jaggery - 1 cup Cardamom powder - 2 tsps Cashewnuts, chopped - 10 Almonds, chopped - 5-10 Raisins - 10 Method: Roast rava till it is light brown or till the aroma wafts into the air. Keep aside. Let it cool for at least 20 mins. Remove the jackfruit seeds and put them into a mixer ...
