Yea, yea, we know! Yet another cookie recipe but we are on the hunt for the perfect cookie! These are old school double chocolate chewy cookies which will leave you drooling! Fantastic served hot out of the oven with a cold glass of milk. These cookies are dead easy and for a lighter softer cookie try using cake flour instead of the old standard all purpose flour.
Chewy Double Chocolate Cookies
1/2 cup of butter/margarine
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/4 cup of caster sugar
1 egg
Vanilla Essence/Sugar
1 1/4 cups of flour
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
2 heaped table spoons of unsweetend coca powder
a pinch of salt
75 grams of Cooking chocolate roughly chopped
OPTIONAL: chopped nuts
Pre-Heat the oven to 180 degrees celsius or 375 degrees fahrenheit. Cream the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and the vanilla. This should form a batter like substance make sure there are no lumps and its completely smooth. In a separate bowl mix the flour, baking soda, coca powder and salt. Slowly sieve in the flour mixture into the butter mixture, keep mixing throughout to keep a nice consistency.
When you have a semi-dough formed its time to add the chocolate chips/chunks and if you are using nuts you add them now. This mixture makes a slightly sticky wet dough but thats fine it forms wonderfully moist cookies.
On a baking tray form your cookies using table spoons to make rough round shapes. By using a spoon rather than your hands you can have a more regular size. Depending on the size of your cookies you can make around 15 with this recipe.
There! Done! EASY AS PIE! =D
Bake for around 20 mins, or until you can stick a fork into the centre and it comes out clean!
