5 / 5 (5 reviews)

Delicious chunky chocolate chip cookies that the cookie monster would go crazy for. Soft in the middle, crunchy at the edges and packed full of milk chocolate chunks.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Beat together the butter (200g) and sugars (90g soft dark brown sugar, 110g caster sugar) until fully combined and lighter in colour (this should take 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer).

  2. Add the egg (1 whole large egg + 1 yolk) and the vanilla extract (1 tbsp) and beat until fully combined.

  3. Sift in the dry ingredients (300g plain flour, 1½ tsp bicarbonate of soda, ⅛ salt) and mix together until fully combined.

  4. Finally mix in the chocolate chunks (250g) until they are evenly distributed in the mixture.

  5. Roll the dough into a sausage shape about 5cm in diameter (I find it easiest to split the dough into two and make two sausages) and wrap in cling film. You may find it easier to use the clingfilm to help you get an even sausage shape as the dough will be a little sticky. Refrigrerate for at least 1 hour (up to 5 days).

Chef's Notes

These cookies are best eaten within 24 hours of baking. If you'd like to make them further in advance then below the recipe you'll find instructions for freezing your cookie dough, baking the cookies from frozen and freezing cookies after they've been baked. If you haven't eaten them all with 24 hours you can also find instructions for reviving a soft cookie so it gets it delicious crunchy edges back. Have you tried this recipe?

Hi! I love your recipes❤️ I just wanted to know if adding chopped pistachios along with the chocolate chips be a good idea?

Karen ★ 5.0/5

Baked half and froze half . Crispy on the outside and soft inside. Delicious- Thankyou Charlotte

Amee ★ 5.0/5

I’ve forgotten the salt, would it be too late to sprinkle it over the top of the cookies before baking? The sausage shape is in the fridge now...
I’ve made these before and they are delicious.

Wanda ★ 5.0/5

Turned out perfectly. Not too sweet. My yardstick are the family and how quickly the cookie jar empties. Great recipe but will from now keep half the cookies in the larder and try to spread them out!
