Súkkulaðibitakökur

So December is here and time to make some Christmas cookies. We start out with Súkkulaðibitakökur or Chocolate chip cookies.

The recipe is as follows and comes from Óli's grandmother.

150 gr. Butter or 2/3rds of a cup
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1 Egg
1 tea spoon Vanilla drops
1 1/2 cup Flour
1/2 tea spoon Natron
1/2 tea spoon Salt
1/2 cup chopped Almonds or Hazelnuts (I prefer Hazelnuts)
1 1/4 cup Chocolate

The butter, sugar and brown sugar whipped together.
Add the eggs and drops
Then flour, natron, salt (you might want to mix these separately)
And then of course the nuts and the chocolate.

The mix would look like this.


Use two spoons or your hands.

And spread them out on a plate as follows:


Bake the cookies in the oven at 180°C for 8-10 minutes. Take the cookies out and cool them off before filling up a jar like this:



Be careful not to take the whole jar when you want a snack. Rather fill a small bowl, otherwise you WILL eat to much.

Enjoy
