Cupboard Chocolate Chip Cookies
Really, the recipe calls them "Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies," but I changed the name of them because I made them from what I had in my cupboard! And the four "C"s in the title just look so cute!
Anyway, this story begins with twitter. Naturally. I twittered about a website I had once used, but couldn't find it again, and I almost immediately got a similar and better website from Kevin's mom!
I went to supercook.com and entered in all the ingredients I could remember having. Mainly, it was hard to find something to make because we have one egg and no sugar. We have Splenda, but Kevin uses that for his sweet tea, so I didn't want to take away any of his sugar.
I searched through all the recipes I could make, trying to find something I could make for dinner, but I didn't seem to really have anything that would work. I ended up making cereal, but Kevin was saying he wanted cookies. So I found a recipe finally that I could make with the ingredients I had! The Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies that I renamed. :)
I did make some alterations...I used a cup of whole wheat flour and a cup and a quarter of the all-purpose flour. I read somewhere that you can substitute whole wheat flour in anything as long as there is equal parts...and I guessed it wouldn't be a big deal to have 1/4 more all-purpose. Also, I only had bittersweet chocolate chips...so it's got a little kick with the chocolate. However it's 60% cacao and that's good I think!
Kevin's letting me use his old camera, a Canon Rebel XTi, to learn how to take better pictures. So I took that one with a 50mm lens. I've been having so much fun taking pictures with this camera and the lenses that he is letting me use. He's awesome. It's the batter after I spooned a dozen cookies out already. They were in the oven.
After those came out of the oven, I added the rest of the batter to the cookie sheet.
And the final product!
It was fun making real cookies...I've been buying the packaged kind that you just tare apart a place on the cookie sheet. It's just so easy! But so were these! And I got more out of making them and I didn't have to buy anything for them! Plus if you get over the bitter chocolate, they are really good.
I have a similar story about this I'll post about later, it involves an iPhone app! Oooo!
