Simple Chocolate Chip Cookie

This is the easy recipe that I have tried and adjusted according to my liking (and to the availability of what's in my fridge ). I have reduced much of the sugar because I want to taste more of the butter. All measurements are also in cup, so no need to worry about dirtying the weighing scale.

Chocolate Chip Cookie

Ingredients:

1/2 cup salted butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar or brown sugar
1 cup  flour
1 large egg
1 tspn vanilla essence
1/2 tspn baking soda
1 cup roasted hazelnut (chopped)
1 cup chocolate chip

Steps:
1. Beat butter and sugar together. Add egg and vanilla essence. Beat a little bit more.
2. Shift in the flour and baking soda. Mix well.
3. Last but not least, add in chopped hazelnut and chocolate chip.
4. We will get a rather sticky dough. This is the special part. Put the dough in cling wrap plastic and roll it into a log. Keep this log refrigerated for a few hours (I keep some for 2 days because I like to have my supply at hand :p).
5. Take out from the fridge and start cutting our log of dough into the size we want (See pic below)
6. Baked at 160C for 15 to 20 minutes according to our oven's  heating adjustment.

Putting the dough in the fridge allowed it to rest and to fully 'combined'. The result is rather excellent. The texture of the cookie is somewhere between chewy and crunchy. Did this recipe a few times already.

Can't never go wrong with it, Insha Allah.
