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.

Nutella & Chocolate Chip Cookies

Method

1. First cream the butter and sugar until pale and little airy. You can use a hand whisk or an electric handheld mixer for the same.
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.

Best Homemade South Indian Sambar Recipe

By -
Image
A hearty stew made with yellow lentils, vegetables and heaps of aromatic spice powder, Sambar is a staple served with all the meals at every South Indian household. The flavorful lentil curry tempered with aromatic curry leaves, mustard seeds and whole dried red chilies makes for a delectable accompaniment whether having hot idlis , vada, dosa or even plain steamed rice. It won't be incorrect to say that while sambar is majorly known for its tongue-tickling taste, it is also packed with a lot of health benefits; toor dal lends it that much needed dosage of protein, the vegetables provide it with all the essential vitamins and minerals and lastly, addition of hing and tamarind loads it with immune-boosting properties. Having said that, every household has its own recipe of making sambar. Some like it to have thick, others a bit runny. Some like the chunkiness of vegetables whereas others like their sambar to be smooth. Some like it on a tangier side, others with just a hint

Farali Dhokla - Navratri Special [No Eno Fruit Salt] | Vrat ka Dhokla | Barnyard Millet Savory Steamed Cake

By -

Recently my husband travelled to Ahmedabad and while returning brought a 3-in-1 dhokla/idli/patra steamer for me. Since then, I am always in lookout for opportunities to use this versatile steamer. Well! in the past 15 - 20 days I have already tried my hands making the instant KHAMAN DHOKLA and the 3 GRAIN DHOKLA , both of which were a big hit on my blog. It was now time again to experiment something new; and because we all are observing the Navratri fasts , there was no choice but to come up with a farali dhokla . A few days back, I was just scrolling through various blogs to find a dhokla recipe for the vrat (fasting) but each one listed a recipe that called for use of either eno or baking soda. Since I did not want to incorporate any of these ingredients in my fasting recipe, I thought of  going the old-fashioned way i.e. fermenting the batter overnight so that it gets a natural rise while steaming. And to my utter surprise, it actually worked. I got a nice spongy and fluffy

Farali Dahi ke Kebab | Vrat ke Dahi Kebab | Navratri Recipes

By -

So soft, delectable and absolutely melt in mouth, Dahi ke Kebab are one of the most loved and popular vegetarian appetizers served in almost every North Indian restaurant. While, authentically these kebabs either have besan (gram flour) or bread crumbs for the binding, however, when craving for these kebabs during fasting, you can't have them because of them having these grains. So, just so that I could enjoy these heavenly goodies in fasting too, I tried creating a farali version of them by adding makhana (foxnut) and sabudana flours instead of besan or bread crumbs for the binding. Trust me, they came out absolutely mindblowing and super tasty. If you too are someone who likes to fast and enjoy the delectable stuff at the same time, then this recipe is absolutely a must try.....  Farali Dahi ke Kebab | Vrat ke Dahi Kebab | Navratri Recipes INGREDIENTS Hung Curd -  1 Cup Grated Paneer - 1/4 cup Sendha Namak - as per taste Kala Namak - as per taste Sugar - 1 to 2 tsp F

Instant Moong Dal Idli Recipe | How to Make Instant Moong Dal Idli

Idli is one of the healthiest Indian breakfast options by far. These soft, pillowy and melt-in-mouth lentil cakes are traditionally made by fermenting rice and urad dal batter overnight; however, the entire process could be quite cumbersome and involves a little amount of planning ahead. Therefore, instant versions of idlis come very handy when you want to have something quick and yet wholesome and healthy in the breakfast . And especially when it comes to me, I am a big fan of instant recipes, be it instant sprouted moong dal dosa , instant rava & oats idli or instant dhokla , you would find me making these items very frequently as they are not only very quick to make and save you a hell lot of time in the kitchen but, at the same time are quite tasty as well as wholesome.

Restaurant Style Paneer Pasanda | Stuffed Cottage Cheese in Creamy Tomato Sauce

By -

Paneer Pasanda is a rich and creamy delicacy from Mughlai Cuisine wherein stuffed fried cottage cheese cubes/triangles are dunked in a luscious tomato & cashew based gravy. This is a perfect recipe for parties, get-togethers and festive occasions. Well, paneer or cottage cheese is one ingredient that is so so versatile. There are literally an endless number of recipes that can be cooked with it; palak paneer , shahi paneer, paneer butter masala , paneer tikka, kadhai paneer, matar paneer, paneer kofta  and paneer bhurji are some of the common ones that are cooked most often at homes. Coming to Paneer Pasanda , making it is slightly complex and time consuming when compared to other paneer dishes. But, just in case you want to add a variety to your usual paneer accompaniments, it makes for a perfect dish to go on your menu. It is one recipe that was long-due on my to-do list and fortunately I got the opportunity to make it last Saturday for a small get-together at our place.

Festivities like Ganesh Chaturthi , Dussehra and Diwali are just around the corner. For me, this is the most awaited time of the year with decked up markets, a little chill in the air and happiness all around, emanating an aura of positivity and elation in each and every heart. This is also the time when I gear up for the celebrations indulging in shopping, decorating the house and offcourse preparing some traditional sweets and savories at home for all my friends and family. While last year, I made this melt-in-mouth kalakand , vanilla sandesh with strawberry dust and Punjabi style meethi mathri , this time I am planning to go ahead and make this popular sweet from the state of Gujarat: the sweet sata also called as thor . Traditionally, sata is a deep fried pastry, but just to keep the calorie count low this festive season , I decided to go a healthy way and instead of frying, opted to bake them. Trust me, they came out as flaky, crispy and delectable. If you are also looki
