Crispy Nutella & Chocolate Chip Cookies

By -
I love to have my coffee or tea with some home-baked cookies or biscuits; as soon as one lot is about to get finished, the next lot is up and ready to go in my cookie jar... for instance, its been only about a week that I baked the delicious Thumbprint Cookies filled with Chocolate Sauce, and now as only a couple of them are left, I am all set with these Nutella & Chocolate Chip Cookies. Loaded with a rich flavor and texture, these cookies are absolutely decadent and certainly make for an addictive stuff; I promise, you wont be able stop your hands at just one. Also, the recipe is quite simple with only a few basic ingredients needed along with some Nutella offcourse... one thing more, I like to have my cookies crisp so I have baked them for around 13 minutes. For those who prefer their cookies to have a chewy core, can go ahead and bake them for just around 8 to 9 minutes. As these are quite on a sweeter side, you can also sprinkle them with some sea salt before baking, just to cut down that extra sweetness. I did not have the sea salt handy so I skipped it altogether.


Nutella & Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients (yields 15 to 18 cookies)

Unsalted butter (softened to room temperature) - 1/4 cup
Nutella - 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp
All Purpose Flour - 1/2 cup (packed)
Cornflour - 1 tbsp
Granulated Sugar - 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp
Salt - 1/2 tsp
Baking powder - 1/4 tsp
Egg yolk - 1
Vanilla extract - 1 tsp
Chocolate chips - 1/4 cup

P.S - As Nutella is considerably sweet, the amount of sugar can be adjusted/reduced as per one's own sweet preference. Alternatively, a little sprinkle of sea salt also helps cut down that extra sweetness.

Method

2. Next add in vanilla and egg yolk. Whisk until egg is incorporated.
3. Now add nutella and again whisk until that is also mixed in nicely.
4. In a separate bowl, mix in flour, baking powder and cornflour.
5. Using a spatula, mix in the dry ingredients with wet ingredients little at a time.
6. Next, fold in all the chocolate chips. You should be able to get a semi-stiff dough.
7. Now pinch out small equal sized balls from the dough. Flatten them a little between your palms and make a criss-cross sign on top with the help of a fork.
8. Place these cookies on a tray and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
9.  15 mins before baking preheat your oven to 180 degrees C.
10. Place the chilled cookie dough discs on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for about 12 to 14 minutes. Make sure to space the cookies at a gap of 1 inch as they would spread while baking.
11. Once the cookies are baked, cool them completely on a wire rack. These would harden as they cool.
12. Enjoy with some milk or coffee and store the rest in air-tight container.

Bhatura is a leavened, puffed deep fried bread made from Maida or All Purpose Flour. A popular recipe from the Punjabi cuisine, it is mainly served with spiced chickpea curry such as Pindi Chholey and Amritsari Chholey . Traditionally, bhatura is made using fermented dough, which is rested for minimum of 6 hours and has a peculiar tang to it. However, when you are short of time and crave for this delicious Chole Bhatura combo, these instant bhaturas come to your rescue. Quick and easy to prepare, they use Eno Fruit Salt as the leavening agent and trust me, that lends the bhaturas with that perfect crispness on outside and perfect fluffiness on the inside.

Burani Raita Recipe | Spiced, Garlic Flavored Yogurt

By -
Image
Burani Raita is a famous Indian accompaniment to spicy biryanis and pulaos. A Hyderabadi specialty, it uses some thick yogurt that is mixed with few pounded cloves of garlic and some basic spice powders like red chili and roasted cumin, which lend it that much-needed hint of spicy kick. Not to mention, when it comes to making the Burani Raita, it is no more than a five minutes process and makes for an ideal side dish to go along with any kind of rice preparation or even chapati & sabzi combination. Ideally, this utterly flavorful and aromatic raita only has to it, some pounded raw garlic, however, I have given it a slight twist by topping it with some fried garlic bits and some red chili oil for extra flavoring. This step is totally optional and you can skip it altogether by sticking to the traditional way of making it. So, not wasting any time further, lets move on to the recipe....

Lately I have been getting a lot of requests from my readers to post some different and unique snacks recipes . Therefore, thought of coming up with some delish starters that you can make and serve during tea time or as party appetizers . For me, the most loved Indian tea time snack happens to be the ever popular Punjabi Aloo Samosa and talking about the continental recipes, I am a great fan of Italian cuisine; the aroma of dried herbs, garlic, basil and cheese is simply to die for. Well, what if we do a fusion of these two beautiful flavours/techniques? Thought over it for a couple of days and suddenly this idea of trying out these " Garlic & Herbed Baby Corn Samosa Cigars " popped in my mind. So, one may ask, why I call them Samosa Cigars? That is because the crust covering the baby corns inside is made using the same technique that we use to make the samosas. The only difference is, it is flavored with some fresh garlic, some chopped basil and a bit of dry Ita
