As I finished YR11 over a month ago, I have had a lot more time on my hands and tried to do more things that I never do. One of these things is baking. The recipe I'm about to share with you is my perfected chunky chocolate cookies! - They are just THE BEST COOKIES EVER!

 

 

 

200g butter

300g caster sugar 

1 large egg

275g self-raising flour

75g cocoa powder

a little dash of milk 

a large bar of  [any kind] chocolate ( I also use chocolate buttons as well ) 

Sometimes I add Daim bars instead of choc for a yummy toffee crunch!

Pop your oven on to 200 degrees celsius 

Cream together your butter and sugar 

Crack in your egg

Stir in all the dry ingredients

Add a dash of milk if your mixture is looking dry

Break up all of your chocolate and throw it in, using your hands to get it into the dough

Line 2 trays with baking paper (the cookies will spread in the oven so don't place them close together)

Pick up a 10 small handfuls of cookie dough and place them onto your trays

Pop them into the oven for 11 minutes - I have found this to be the perfect baking time.

 

When you get them out they will not look cooked, it is vital you know this, as it will be very tempting to leave them in for longer and then they'll be hard and overcooked once they are cool. Just take your cookies out after 11 minutes and leave them to cool for about 30 minutes.

 

Now enjoy a deliciously warm, melt in your mouth cookie.
