Chocolate Chip Cookies

Method

• step 1

  Grease at least two baking trays (you may need more or bake in two batches, depending). Preheat oven to 190 degrees.

• step 2

  Beat the sugar, butter and vanilla extract together on a high speed of electric whisks. Slowly beat in the eggs one by one. If the mixture starts to curdle or separate, add a spoon of the flour.

• step 3

  Fold in the flour and baking powder until well combined. Then fold in the chocolate chips. Place in the fridge for 30 minuted to chill.

• step 4

  Spoon just under a tbsp of the cookie dough onto the baking tray making sure you don't place the dough too close together as it will spread out in the oven.

• step 5

  Place in the oven and bake for 7-10 minutes until golden brown. Leave on the tray for a couple of minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack. They can be served warm alongside ice cream, fruit etc or leave them or they can be eaten cold!

• step 6

  Alternatively, place the cookie dough in balls in the freezer and cook from frozen.
