Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies

I love cookies. And Christmas time means lots of love and even more cookies! These Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies are a must. I make them all year round and the kids don't even wait for them to cool down before gobbling them up two at a time. These are a great snack for a tea time and even a midnight snack. Santa will be very pleased if these were set out for him. That is if everyone doesn't finish them before Santa gets there!


This recipe makes around 22 cookies, depending on how big your chocolate chunks are and if you don't add extra to the batter. You may even be able to make a full 2 dozen! We enjoy waring these in the oven to make them extra soft again before enjoying these with a tall glass of milk or tea.








Preparation Time 15 mins

Cook Time 12-15 minutes

Yields 20-22 cookies


Ingredients


120 grams/ 1 cup all purpose flour

60 grams/ 3/4 cup cocoa powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

140 grams butter- room temperature

160 grams/ 3/4 cup soft brown sugar

60 grams/ 1/4 cup sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup chocolate chunks- plus extra for topping the cookies







Instructions


  1. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk it well and set aside.

  2. Beat the butter and sugars together for 5-6 minutes until light and fluffy.

  3. Add the egg and vanilla. Beat again for 2 minutes.

  4. Add the flour mixture and mix it until just combined and no dry patches remain.

  6. Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 1 hour.
