I made two mistakes when preparing the chocolate chip cookies this time, so hope these reminders would be helpful for you guys :)
Reminders:
1. Check when its around 8 mins, sometimes when the size of the cookies is not that big, they tend to be ready sooner than it said. I was worried that they are not cooked, so I leave it longer in the oven and you can see some of the cookies are black at the side :(
2. When its almost ready ( the colour is golden brown and the chocolate flavour smells so good), you can turn off the oven and leave it inside for another 3-4 mins, otherwise the cookies will be overcooked and too crispy. :(
