Choc-chip Cookies

Method

• step 1

  Preheat oven to 180C.

• step 2

  Combine butter and sugar until smooth. Fold in flour until a dough or lumps of dough is formed. Add golden syrup and fold in evenly to form a sticky ball of dough.

• step 3

  Chop chocolate into small drops (or buy ready-made chocolate drops) and add to the dough, folding in evenly.

• step 4

  Roll mixture into small balls, smaller than a ping-pong ball, and place onto a baking tray (covered with non-stick baking paper). Leave a minimum space of two inches between each one. Place in the centre of the oven for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.

• step 5

  Take out of oven and place on a cooling tray.
