These chocolate chip cookies are really quick to make and are packed full of chocolate! They also double up as a great DIY cookie mix gift, by layering up the ingredients inside a lock tight jar tying with ribbon and placing the method on a tag. Fantastic as a last minute gift or to bake when friends come over, they don’t stick around for long!!!
Ingredients
115g butter
115g light brown sugar
1 egg
100g porridge oats
1 tbsp milk
125g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
170g plain chocolate
170g milk chocolate
Method
– Preheat oven to 180c/ gm 4, line and grease 2 baking sheets
– Mix softened butter and sugar together until well combined and paler in colour.
– Add the egg, mix well and add the oats and milk.
– When mixed together add the flour and baking powder and mix until all the ingredients come together.
– Place chocolate into a bag and smash with a rolling pin until broken into pieces. I like to leave it fairly chunky.
– Stir in the chocolate and place tablespoon size dollops of the mixture onto baking sheets. Wet hands and gently press the down slightly.
– Bake in the oven for around 15-20 mins depending on how dark you want them. They will still be quite soft when cooked and will harden when cooled.
– Leave to cool for at least 5 mins as the melted chocolate will be molten!
This is the gift I made my friend with the addition of cocoa powder 🙂
Happy baking 🙂
