Chewy Chocolate Cookies

So I know I have been neglecting my blog for the past three weeks (I had exams) but I am back and hope you will forgive me with this delicious chewy chocolate cookie recipe.

Ingredients

50g of butter

450g dark chocolate (chopped)

2 eggs

170g soft brown sugar

1/4 tsp of vanilla extract

85g of plain flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder

Method

Line two baking trays and turn the oven to 170C, 325F or Gas mark 3.

Put the butter and half the chocolate into a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water do not let the base of the bowl touch the water. Leave until melted and smooth.

Put the eggs, sugar and vanilla extract into a mixer with the paddle attachment and beat until well combined, pour in the chocolate mixture while on a slow speed.

Sift the flour baking powder and salt into a bowl and mix into the chocolate mix in 3 separate additions. Add the remains chocolate and place 12 equal amounts into the prepared baking trays. 

Then bake for 10-15 minutes or until the tops start to crack and look glossy leave to cool slightly on the trays before setting onto cooling racks.

Hope you have as much fun making these tasty treats as you do eating them.
