These are the Ultimate Chocolate Chips Cookies<\/strong> made from scratch, and I call them Scookies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scookies are the Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies, thick and loaded with chocolate chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are a cross between a cookie and a scone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No, not Snookies (ha), Scookies, or S Cookies, as in the Italian S-shaped cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know it’s an unusual name for chocolate chip cookies,<\/strong> but trust me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll explain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Scookies? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’ve made several versions of thick chocolate chip cookies<\/strong> over the years because that’s the way I like them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies<\/strong> are a cross between a British scone<\/a><\/strong> and a soft cookie<\/a><\/strong> hence the name, Scookies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You heard it here first, and I know these Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies<\/strong> will take off like a rocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this in mind, the Scookies<\/strong> will be loved by all chocolate chip cookie lovers across the land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, I’m biased, but I ate the entire batch, SO I can confirm they are freakin amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you’ll notice, they look filled with semi-sweet chocolate chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your observations are correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scookies Portion Sizes<\/h2>\n\n\n

I made eight large Cookies using this recipe using a large ice cream scoop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, you can make 12 smaller Scookies<\/strong> to stretch the batch further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having the Scookies<\/strong> bigger means more Hershey’s Chipit’s<\/a><\/strong> chocolate chips per cookie, far more than if I made 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add more chocolate chips to the cookie dough batter; every cookie will be equally gooey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ordinarily, I’m not one for measuring chocolate chips, so the choice is yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You won’t find nutritional information for these Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie<\/strong>s because you probably won’t care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you do, work it out yourself with the ingredient list below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just eat one of these Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies<\/strong> and savor the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scookies<\/strong> go with any milk or hot beverage, or you can eat them alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, I ate mine with a cold glass of milk one day, and I had a cup of coffee the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Scookies<\/strong> Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies are also peanut-free and perfect for your child’s lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Make The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies – Scookies<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Scookies\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Three secret ingredients in the Scookies recipe allowed me to create these Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used powdered grass-fed gelatin<\/a><\/strong> in the cookie dough and Brodie self-rising flour<\/a>, which<\/strong> we would use in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brodie flour is found in most Canadian grocery stores, as we bought ours at Food Basics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will wonder why I’ve added baking powder when the self-rising includes it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is because they have double-action, so they are thicker chocolate chip cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specifically, I also added all-purpose flour for this reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, I said Kirkland Almond Flour<\/a><\/strong> which you can buy at Costco or Amazon Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is also a banana in the cookie dough, but you won’t taste it at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To explain using the very ripe banana to add a soft texture to the Scookies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
