- 125 gram butter melted
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
- 1 large egg
- 1&1/4 cup cake wheat flour or all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius. Line 2 trays with parchment paper and set aside
Beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar together until combined. Mix in the vanilla essence
Beat in the egg and vanilla essence. Add the flour, salt and bicarbonate of soda and mix until combined
Add the chocolate chips and mix well. You should have a soft cookie dough
Scoop up a level ice-cream scoop of cookie dough and place on the lined cookies tray. Place more chocolate chips on top of each cookie if you wish. Place them a few centimetres apart as they will spread
Place them in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove them after an hour and gently flatten the tops just a little, with the back of a spoon
Bake at 160 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes. If you prefer crispy cookies bake a little longer. Cookies will still be soft when removed from the oven. Place them on a cooling rack to cool
- I used light brown sugar for these cookies but dark brown sugar is perfectly fine
- When in the oven keep a careful eye on it, depending on your oven you may need to adjust the baking time
- If you prefer a more crisp cookie you can bake them for a few extra minutes
