CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

                    I like making up a batch of these and then
                    storing the dough in the refrigerator so that
                    I can make up hot biscuits whenever an
                    attack of the munchies strikes. 

                      1. Cream
                         125 gm butter (about half a stick or 1/2
                         cup)
                         1/2 cup white sugar
                         1/2 cup brown sugar
                         1/2 teaspoon vanilla (for you vanillaholics
                         a full teaspoon is fine) 

                      2. Add an egg and mix 

                      3. Mix in sifted
                         1-3/4 cups self raising flour
                         (if you don't have self raising flour add a
                         half teaspoon each of baking soda and
                         baking powder)
                         1/2 teaspoon salt 

                      4. Add 125 gm (1/2 cup) chocolate chips
                         and mix 

                      5. Lightly grease a cooking tray and place
                         small balls of dough on it allowing room
                         for spreading. 

                      6. Cook in a moderate oven of 200C
                         (380F) for 10 minutes
