Hope you enjoy the recipe whichi found below :)!

Basic Recipe Ingredients (See below for additions):

• 1/2 cup flour • 1/2 tsp. baking soda • 1/2 tsp. salt • 100g unsalted butter at room temperature • 100g granulated sugar • 100g brown sugar • 1/2 tsp. vanilla • 1 egg Optional • 50g chocolate pieces (broken)

Directions: 1. You will need to preheat your oven to 350°F (180°С). Then cover a baking tray with parchment paper.

1. In a medium sized bowl mix in the flour, salt and baking soda.

2. Then, separately, in a mixer, add the butter, brown and white sugar. Next add the vanilla with the egg.

3. While continually stirring, bit by bit pour the flour mixture into the mixer, followed by the (optional) chocolate pieces.

4. Take half a tablespoon of the mixture per cookie and put it on the baking sheet you’ve set aside.

5. Bake the cookies for approx. 10 minutes, or until they look brown.

6. Let them cool down before you attempt to separate them from the sheet.

Additionally Custom Made Cookies:

1. For super soft and gooey cookies Just add 2 extra cups of flour to the recipe.

2. For crispy & crunchy but soft in the middle cookies Just add ¼ tsp. baking powder and ¼ tsp. baking soda.

3. For golden delicious tanned cookies Better caramelization occurs over 356°F, so add an extra 10 or so degrees to the heat. Suggested 360°F.

4. For a nice chewy cookie Instead of using all-purpose flour, replace with bread flour.

5. For cookies that taste store-bought Replace half the butter with shortening. You could replace the butter entirely, but only at the expense of flavor.
