Cookie time

Who doesn't love chocolate chip cookies.I got a recipe from joyofbaking website and decided to make some home made chocolate chip cookies to take away my stress and fill my home with the calming aroma of baking.
INGREDIENTS:
1. 1and quarter cups of flour
2.1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3.pinch of salt
4.1/2 cup butter
5.3/4 cup sugar
6.1 teaspoon vanilla essence
7.1 egg

METHOD:
1. Mix the dry ingredients - flour, baking powder, salt.
2.Cream the butter and sugar in an electric mixer.
3.Then add an egg, vanilla essence to the butter sugar and mix on medium speed.
5. Slowly add the flour and mix at slow speed.
6.Finally add the chocolate chips and some nuts of your choice till you get a sticky cookie dough.
7.Pre heat the oven to 180 degrees.Spoon the dough into a baking tray and bake at 180 degrees C for 15mins. Mine was done in 12 minutes. You know the cookies are done when they start turning golden brown at the base.
One got burnt but was yummy still

I added some almonds too in my second batch of cookies.
 Serve with some gripping books to enjoy a lazy evening. Ah pure bliss!!!
