Ingredients
125 grams butter, softened
½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 large egg
1 cup plain flour
4 tablespoons cocoa (or flour if you want to make them plain)
½ teaspoon baking powder
125 grams of dark and/or light chocolate chips, I like to do ½ and ½
Method
Preheat oven to 180 degrees and line two cookie trays with parchment.
Beat butter and sugar together until creamy,
Add egg and vanilla, beat together.
mix flour, cocoa and baking powder in your bowl, fold in chocolate chips.
Take a teaspoon of mixture and roll into a bowl, then flatten slightly with a floured fork
Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning half way. 8 minutes is usually plenty, have the guts to pull them out when you think they might be underdone. It’s better that way.
Transfer to wire rack to cool Makes 24 cookies.
