Cookie recipe

[ozzia]

Please can I have your best chocolate cookie and oatmeal and raisin cookie recipes, there are so many online I can't work out which will be good

After a proper chunky cookie, like you buy from Ben's (if you have one near you of course)

www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2007/nov/24/foodanddrink.baking43 has been my go to recipe for ages - never failed. Delicious and great sliced from frozen dough too.

For choc chip cookies - these are delicious but be careful not to over bake them, they need to come out of the oven still soft, then leave them to cool and garden slightly

100 grams soft butter
150 grams soft light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
150 grams plain flour
35 grams cocoa powder
½ teaspoon baking powder
200 grams dark chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas mark 4.
Cream the butter and brown sugar (I use a freestanding mixer for ease), then beat in the vanilla extract and the egg.
Mix the flour, cocoa and baking powder in a bowl and gradually beat in to the creamed mixture. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips.
Using a rounded 15ml-tablespoon measure, spoon out scoops of cookie dough and place on a lined baking sheet, leaving a little space in between each one.
Bake in the oven for 12 minutes and then let them sit on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before moving them to a cooling rack,

Thank you

Looking forward to trying these out
