PRIYA’S CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
INGREDIENTS
125g unsalted butter; 80g granulated sugar;
140g soft brown sugar; 1 large egg; 220g self raising flour; Pinch of salt; 1tsp vanilla; 200g chocolate chips; 50g chopped pecans (optional)
METHOD
1. Preheat the oven to 180˚C Fan and line two baking trays with greaseproof or baking paper.
2. Using an electric whisk, cream together the butter and sugars.
3. Add the egg and vanilla (you may need to scrape the butter off the sides.
4. Add flour, salt and chocolate chips and bring together just until the mixture resembles wet sand.
5. Roll into balls about the size of a walnut and space out on a baking tray leaving 3ins space between the balls.
6. Bake for 8-10 minutes then leave to cool on the tray (the cookies will wrinkle and flatten as they cool).
■ TIPS: These cookies spread a lot so need to be made in batches, have a second tray lined and ready to put into the oven to speed things up (otherwise just make sure your baking tray has cooled before popping the next batch on).
You can substitute chocolate chips for Smarties or crushed Mini Eggs.
