1/2 cup melted butter
1 packet nestle chocolate chips (you can use dark, milk or white)
1/2 cup white sugar
3 cups self raising flour (or all purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder)
Stir the flour, butter, milk and sugar all together to form a thick dough. (add more flour if it seems a little sticky).
Stir in the choc chips. Roll into golf ball size balls and press onto baking paper on a cookie sheet (or greased cookie sheet)
Bake in a moderate oven for about 5 minutes (just slightly browned on the edges). Take out and let cool. Slightly crispy on the outside - chewy in the middle. YUMMMMMM
