After Christmas weekend, we brought our twins to Orchard Road for a walk. It has been a long time since we brought our children to Orchard Road. The street is known for being crowded, especially during weekends and for it's exquisite and expensive buys. While we were at Wisma, we saw this stall - Ben's Cookies, with its nice aroma cookies. Where did the "Famous Amos" gone to? As we past by a few times, my son finally said he wanted to eat the cookies. He said he couldn't stand the aroma anymore.
I'll have to admit, the cookies were really nice. I had a piece of the Dark Chocolate and Nuts and it was really soft, chewy and chocky. I like it very much. I personally preferred chewy cookies to crunchy ones. So, after that one piece of cookie, it triggered my craving. I preferred to make themselves, therefore, starts my quest for a recipe. So on New Year's Day, I attempted this Chewy Chocolate Chips and Walnut Cookies. It was really simple to put them together. The cookies turned out to be pretty good. But there was still some missing element I felt. My hunt continues...
