Easy Choc Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 125g Butter, softened
• 3/4 cup (150g) Brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1 Egg
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups (225g) Plain flour
• 1/2 tsp Bicarbonate of soda
• 150g Dark choc chips

You’ll need: 2 large baking trays, Baking paper, Large bowl

Method

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan). Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.

2. 2

   Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or electric beaters until creamy. Beat in the egg and vanilla.

3. 3

   Stir in the flour and bicarbonate of soda until a soft dough forms, then stir through the choc chips.

4. 4

   Roll tablespoons of dough into balls and place on the trays 5cm apart, flattening slightly. You should get about 20.

5. 5

   Bake one tray at a time for 10–12 minutes, until golden around the edges but still soft in the middle. Cool on the tray for 5 minutes (they firm up as they cool), then move to a wire rack. Don't eat the raw dough, as it contains raw egg and flour.
