The world's best white chocolate chip cookies!

A few months ago I was at Subway with some friends. I love Subway because you get to choose whatever you want on your sub...delicous! But after that visit there is one more reason that I love Subway...their macadamia and white chocolate chip cookies. They are AMAZING! Perfectly chewy and yet crisp at the same time. Since I tasted them a while back, I have been wanting to try and make those perfect cookies at home.

After looking at different recipes and comparing ingredients I came up with a combination that gives the PERFECT cookies. The fantastic thing with these cookies is that you can make them into any flavour you want. White chocolate and macadamia nuts, dried cranberries, normal chocolate chip...the list goes on.

White chocolate chip cookies Makes about 20



5 dl (2 cups) flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ tsp salt
180g butter, melted
2½ dl (1 cup) brown sugar
1 dl (100ml) white sugar
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
2 tsp vanilla essence
2½ dl (1 cup) white chocolate chips (or a roughly chopped chocolate slab)

1. Preheat the oven to 165 degrees C
2. Mix the flour, bicarb and salt in a bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar and white sugar well.
4. Add the egg and the yolk to the sugar mixture and combine well.
5. Add the dry ingrediants and mix. Be careful not to over-mix...only mix until the flour is just combined in.
6. Finally stir in the white chocolate chips, or whichever flavour you choose.
7. Form the dough into small balls (about 4 cm wide) and press lightly down onto a baking sheet that is lined with wax paper. Leave enough room between the cookies for them to spread out while in the oven.



8. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the sides of the cookies are light brown but the inside is still soft.


A Tip:
Definately use butter if you can instead of margarine...you get a much creamier and fuller flavour.



Happy baking!

Love,
Heidi
