How to make Chocolate Chip Cookies
Mixing the Dough
In a bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and mix well. Then, add your flavour extract of choice.
Add the flour and baking soda and mix using a spatula until you achieve a fine consistency.
Pour in the chocolate chips and mix until evenly distributed.
Baking the Cookies
Place a baking sheet on your tray.
Use a scoop to portion the dough onto your baking tray, leaving some space between each cookie. You can also use your hands to roll the dough into round shapes and place them on the baking tray.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips & Tricks
For chewier cookies, use melted butter.
If you want to flatten the cookies slightly, press down on them gently with a fork before baking.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their freshness.
FAQS
Can I use a different type of sugar?
Yes, you can substitute brown sugar for a richer, molasses-like flavor. Using all brown sugar will result in a chewier cookie.
Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Absolutely! You can freeze the cookie dough in individual scoops or as a whole batch. When ready to bake, thaw the dough in the refrigerator and bake as directed.
What can I substitute for butterscotch flavour?
You can use vanilla extract, almond extract, or any other flavouring extract you prefer. The quantity should be the same as for butterscotch flavour.
How do I prevent the cookies from spreading too thin?
Make sure your butter is not too soft and chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking. Also, avoid over-greasing the baking sheet.
Can I add nuts to the cookies?
Yes, feel free to add chopped nuts like walnuts, pecans, or macadamia nuts for added texture and flavor. Mix them into the dough along with the chocolate chips.
