Chocolate chip cookies and Cheese Biscuits!

For this year's Raya, my mum decided to bake only 2 types of cookies. Chocolate chip cookies and Cheese biscuits! Nyum!

 However, this year I couldn't join in the fun and help my mum and brother baking it. I have to work. My brother's having study week which means he doesn't have to go to school. So, this week he could help with the baking. He still dare to say that I can't eat the cookies cos I didn't help out. Tsktsk! I helped out, but only with the preparation like weighing the flour, sugar and butter late at night. Just so they could make them in the morning.

Anyway, do you want to to try out the recipes? I'm willing to share cos these recipes also came from my mum's friend. No harm sharing :)

What's a bit different about the chocolate chip cookies is that, it has crushed cornflake in it. So, it's more crunchy and delicious!
