Cereal Cookies sans Cereals

Yesterday, I wanted to bake some cookies - again to finish off the Nestum cereals before the Chinese New Year. But my girls insisted that they only want Chocolate Chips in them. So in the end, I omitted the cereals and only added Chocolate Chips. I think I should have added more flour because it was a little heavy in moisture without the cereals. Cereals actually absorb the moisture and helps to make the cookies a little more body. Without the cereals, my cookies all flopped down and became flat biscuits. Nonetheless, the results was still yummy and the girls polished off almost the whole tin of it!

I will try baking it again, and adding more flour into it this week and see how it goes. Oh, by the way, just to remind you that:

These cookies are SUPER EASY and do not need the use of a mixer at all. It's a lot of stirring and very short and light beating using a whisk or just a paddle spoon!
