Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies ~ 巧克力核桃奇曲


Delight your family and friends with these easy chocolate chip cookies with butter and walnuts.  These cookies are fairly big, thick, crunchy and not very sweet as I've cut down on the amount of sugar.  These are always a hit amongst adults and children alike.




Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies ~  巧克力核桃奇曲
Ingredients
  • 170 gm unsalted butter
  • 90 gm dark brown sugar  ( I used Rapadura sugar)
  • 50 gm caster sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp  vanilla
  • 250 gm plain flour
  • 2 tsp cornflour
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 150 gm choc-chips
  • 30 gm walnuts, coarsely chopped
Method
  1. Sift plain flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt, mix in cornflour set aside.
  2. Using a handheld whisk, beat butter and sugar till smooth and creamy.
  3. Add in the egg, mix well.
  4. Lightly whisk in the flours, mix till well combined.
  5. On low speed, add in choc-chips and walnuts, or you can opt to mix in by hand with a spatula.
  6. Wrap dough in clingwrap, chill in the fridge for a few hours or up to 2 days.  I chilled mine, overnight.  (Chlling is a must as this cookie dough is soft).
  7. Sit dough at room temperature for 10 mins.  Roll dough about 1.1/2 Tbsp into balls.  (I used an ice cream scoop, about 2 Tbsp).
  8. Place dough onto a parchment lined baking tray, about 1.1/2 inch apart.
  9. Bake in a preheated oven @ 180 deg.C for 10 to 15 mins. till golden brown.
  10. Allow to cool in tray for 5 mins. before transferring onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  11. Yield :  16 Big cookies

Mini lime marmalade chiffon cake

These little chiffon cupcakes were made with lime marmalade.  Other than orange marmalade I've never come across lime marmalade and so this went into my shopping basket when I was in Perth last.  It's slightly more sour than orange marmalade but it's delicious when you have it with butter or peanut butter slathered on a slice of freshly baked bread or toast!

Kai Chai Paeng aka Little chicken biscuit

K ai Chai Paeng or 'Little chicken biscuit' was one of my father's favourite item to take away whenever we stopped by Bidor, a small town south of Ipoh on the way to Kuala Lumpur, long ago before the North-South Highway came into existence.  Those days, Bidor's famous restaurant, Pun Chun ,was like a half-way house whereby travellers would stop by for their signature 'Ngap thui meen' or duck thigh noodles. Pun Chun restaurant is right in the middle of town along the main road and has been in operation for 70 years and their Kai Chai Paeng were of the thick, doughy type made with lard and some pork but now they also have the thin and crispy version. Another small town, known as Kampar which is nearer to Ipoh is also famous for their thin and crispy version of  Kai Chai Paeng.  However,  I'm not too sure which town is the originator of these 'chickenless', unique but absolutely aromatic 'Little chicken biscuit'.
