Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients
  • 75g/3oz butter
  • 50g/2oz caster sugar
  • 125g/4oz self raising flour
  • 50g/2oz plain chocolate chips
Method
  1. Heat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
  2. Cream the butter and the sugar together until fluffy.
  3. Fold in the flour to get a smooth paste.
  4. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Roll in to small balls and space evenly on a well greased baking tray (I use a piece of baking parchment to stop them from sticking).
  6. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until pale golden-brown. Set aside to cool on a wire rack.
I can never get the mixture to bind once all of the ingredients are added so I always add a tiny splash of milk to bind them. My cookies need slightly longer baking but are always lovely.

You can change the type of chocolate chip (milk, white) or even add fudge pieces and you can make double chocolate chip by adding some cocoa power in place of the flour.
