Blogmas #3 | RECIPE - Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

Today I thought I would share with you a cookie recipe. I have only baked these once myself and they were delicious and too good of a recipe not to share. I found this recipe online and it is mean’t to be a take on a popular American cookie recipe.

Ingredients
125g Softened Butter
100g Light Soft Brown Sugar
125g Caster Sugar
1 Egg
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
225g Self-Raising Flour
Pinch of Salt
200g Chocolate Pieces

Method
1.    Preheat your oven to 180°c (fan)

2.    In a medium sized mixing bowl, add the softened butter, light brown soft sugar, caster sugar, the egg and vanilla extract and mix together with a wooden spoon.

3.    Add the self-raising flour and salt and mix again.

4.    When the mixture is smooth, add in the chocolate pieces (I use Cadbury’s chocolate buttons) and mix well.

5.    Use about a tablespoon of mixture per cookie and evenly spread the mixture on a grease paper lined baking tray. There is no need to flatten them as they will expand whilst in the oven baking.

6.    Bake them in the oven for 8 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

7.    When baked, remove them from the oven. Leave them too cool for 5 minutes to eat them warm or transfer them onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Will you be using this recipe to make some delicious cookies?

My Eye Primers: The Verdict!

It has taken me a long time to put this altogether, but I have finally done it! I decided I wanted to share my thoughts on eye primers I had tried and it turned out that I had ten, so I thought I would test them and find out which one worked best for me. I have split them into two categories (High End/Low End) and I aim to rank them from #1 to #10 on which is the longest wearing. Let’s look at the primers I will be testing. HIGH END URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PRICE: £17.50 SIZE: 10ml SHADES: Original, Anti-ageing, Freebase, Eden, Fix, Minor Sin, Sin and Caffeine APPLICATION: Squeeze tube without a nozzle, but also has a sponge stick applicator PROMISES: Non-creasing, gives you vibrant eyeshadows WHERE TO BUY: UrbanDecay.co.uk (UK) & Sephora (USA) I like to think that this primer is my favourite as I love the packaging (purple is my favourite colour). It is potion bottle inspired and it is the first primer I remember ever seeing and wanting. The packa...

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...
