Ingredients

  • 340 g Plain flour
  • 2 tsps Baking powder
  • ½ tsp Bicarbonate of soda
  • 140 g Butter
  • 120 g Soft brown sugar
  • 60 g Granulated sugar
  • 2 tsps Vanilla extract
  • 1 Medium sized egg
  • 300 g Chocolate chunks

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 170℃
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the soft brown sugar and the granulated sugar. Pour in the melted butter.
  • Whisk it together for 4-5 minutes until it is well combined and the butter is no longer separated from the sugars.
  • Add the vanilla extract and the egg, mix well to combine.
  • Add the bicarbonate of soda, baking powder and a pinch of salt to the flour, and mix well.
  • Add the four mix into the mixing bowl and use a wooden spoon to mix until a dough has formed.
  • Fold through the chocolate chips.
  • Roll the cookie dough into a 'sausage' shape, cover with cling film and place into the fridge for 20 minutes. This will firm it up a little bit.
  • Cut the dough into 12 equal portions, weighing approximately 100 g each.
  • Place each piece onto lined baking trays, leaving enough space in between so they can spread.
  • Press each cookie down a little bit to make a rough cookie shape.
  • Bake them for 13-15 minutes until they are golden around the edges.
  • Leave them to cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!
