125 grams butter
1 egg
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup caster sugar ((or granulated sugar))
1 3/4 cups SR flour ((or 1 3/4 cups plain/all-purpose flour and 3 teaspoons baking powder and a pinch of salt))
3/4 cups chocolate chips (milk, dark or white (or 125 grams roughly chopped chocolate))

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to moderate (180 degrees celsius, fan-forced).
Line three baking trays with baking paper.
Cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
Add lightly whisked egg and vanilla extract and beat again until well combined.
Fold in flour gradually, and then stir in chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout mixture. (But don't overmix!)
Roll tablespoons into balls and place on baking tray, spaced to allow for spreading. Flatten balls slightly with your fingertips.
