Chocolate chip and Almond cookies

200 gms all purpose flour (maida)
1 teaspoon Baking powder
125 gms powdered sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup blanched and peeled almonds
Chocolate chips ( as many as you would like)
2-3 drops vanilla essence
125 gms unsalted butter

Whisk the eggs with butter, vanilla essence. Slowly start adding the baking powder, sugar and flour. Mix well. Ensure no lumps are formed. Lastly add the almonds and chocolate chips.

Preheat an oven for about 10 mins. In a greased tray pour the cookie batter ( each cookie should be the size of a small coin- will eventually expand to almost 4 times it's size). Bake for about 12-15 mins.

Take the cookies off the tray and leave them to cool.

P.S: You may add cocoa powder to the cookies to make them chocolate wcookies. Almonds can be substituted by other nuts ( walnuts taste good too).
