Choco Chip Cookies

Choco Chip Cookies

Finally I have owned an oven. This is my first bake in it. I wanted to make something sweet. I planned for Tiramisu. But then my little achu was with me all excited to use the new oven. I just made the cookies.

My brother loves Hide and Seek Biscuits and I had promised him long back that I would make these Choco Chip Cookies. But then my previous oven blew off and I was restricted to bake in cooker which was limited with these cooker cakes.

Now I have owned a new oven but my bro has left to US for pursuing his MS. This should be a virtual treat for him. However my Achu was so happy to see the baked biscuits and had 2 of it right after baking. All in family loved it too. Hope I would bake this more.
