Hi Aarthi,
I am in love with your recipes... Your pics itself are worth drooling..
I recently moved to bangalore from hyderabad and still in the process of settling down in koramangala..
Can you please suggest me some places where I can find good baking products starting from basic... even good chocolate chips and cocoa.
Thanks in advance.

Not fat-free!! Chocolate and nuts contain fat. I'm tired of clicking on "fat-free " recipes and they are not. I'm on a fat-free diet due to chronic pancreatitis so these recipes don't work. Please change to low-fat like it is.
Aarthi
@Anonymousfat in the sense, it has no direct fat content like butter or oil
Aarthi
@Anonymousyes u can use wheat flour too.

Hello Aarthi!can I use semisweet baking bar instead of the chips and can I avoid the white chocolate chips?Will this alter the the taste?Also if the all purpose flour is replaced with wheat flour,will the taste vary?
Aarthi
@Anonymouschanging the ingredients will affect the taste and texture of it
Yeleena Thomas
Aarthi, could you please share your baking tray size
Shweta Sureka
Hi Aarti, can I avoid chocolate chips in d recipe...will it turn out well
Grace
Hi Aarthi. Just a doubt - ur cup is 240ml you mentioned. So in the recipe for 1/2 cup do you take 120ml or 60gms? If you are taking 60gms do you still measure it in the 1/2 cup of your measuring cups? TIA.
