Today it rained heavily, not a great day for gardening so I made cookies instead. The teenagers of the house inform me they’re very tasty, so here’s the recipe if you’d like to give them a try.
Makes around 10 cookies:
150g plain flour
100g caster sugar
75g soft brown sugar
1 egg
120g unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
150g chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 190 C or gas Mark 5. Combine both sugars in a bowl, melt the butter in a saucepan on a gentle heat and pour into the sugar, stir briskly until combined. Lightly beat the egg and stir into the mixture, sift the flour along with the baking powder into the bowl and combine, then stir in the chocolate chips.
Line a baking tray with baking parchment and dollop on heaped dessertspoons of the cookie mixture, the cookies spread out when cooking so leave a distance between each one on the tray. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool and harden before tasting!
Enjoy!
