Cookies

Eating a few cookies for a snack can't hurt... as long as you don't overdo it. Indeed, they don't provide all the necessary nutrients for our bodies. And we should leave some room for a balanced dinner. The recipe for cookies was born by chance. Around 1930, a young American innkeeper tried to make cookies by mixing pieces of Nestlé "semi-sweet" chocolate in her head. Surprise: they didn't melt during baking. The success was immediate and the production of this chocolate was relaunched.

Instructions

  • 1.   Preheat the oven to 200 °C (392 °F).
    Remove the baking sheet from the oven before it heats up and place parchment paper on the baking sheet.
  • 2.   Shave the chocolate into shavings using a vegetable peeler.
  • 3.   Whisk the melted butter with the sugar until the mixture becomes frothy.
  • 4.   Add the egg, flour, almond powder, and chocolate. Mix well.
  • 5.   Place small, flat mounds of dough on the parchment paper and bake in the oven for about 10 minutes.
    Attention! The cookies should not be overcooked, otherwise they will be too dry. To check, lightly press the cookies with your fingertips, they should remain soft.
  • 6.   Remove from the oven and let cool before enjoying.

Notes & Suggestions

  • If the cookies have cracks, it's because the crystallized brown sugar (which contains no vitamins or minerals!) accelerates the evaporation of water from the surface of the cake, causing it to dry out more quickly, harden, and crack in a characteristic way.

    Too many chocolate chips for my taste. I had only put 150 grams and it's already too much! Otherwise, very good!
