Ingredients
- 120g softened butter
- 90g soft brown sugar
- 90g caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 115g chocolate spread
- 2 drops vanilla extract
- 200g plain flour
- Half a tsp baking powder
- 25g cocoa powder
- 1 pinch of salt
- 150g white/milk/dark chocolate chips
Method
- STEP 1Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Cream the butter and both types of sugar together in a large bowl until the mixture becomes creamy.
- STEP 2Add the egg, vanilla extract and chocolate spread into the creamed butter mixture and, using an electric whisk, mix it all together.
- STEP 3Into another bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Mix these together a little, then add this flour mixture into the creamed butter mixture and mix gently with a wooden spoon until the flour is no longer visible but the mixture is still quite lumpy. Add the chocolate chips and stir them in evenly.
- STEP 4Using two baking trays, spoon 8 heaps of the cookie mixture well spread out over each tray. Bake in the oven for roughly 15 minutes. Remove the trays and leave the cookies in them for a few minutes to set. Once set, move the cookies to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely, or even enjoy them warm!
