Chocolate Chip Cookies
Lucy made these cookies from the book I got from Mum. Little and Friday by Kim Evan. I let Lucy do some baking the other weekend from this book as I have found that every thing in this book turns out beautifully and taste so divine .
Her comments on the page was Sometimes she uses a combination of milk, white and dark chocolate to make these scrumptious cookies. The chunkier the chocolate ,the better

What we did before the point 5.
Lucy and I decided to roll the whole dough into a sausage like log
return to fridge for about half and hour. We sliced these evenly and
placed on tray. Then baked the for around 20 minutes as instructed.
This recipe also can be changed
with a few different types of chocolate., Add White chocolate or half
