Heat the oven to 180C. Line one baking tray with non-stick baking paper.

Put the butter and sweetener into a bowl and beat until creamy. Beat in the vanilla and egg

Sieve the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt into the bowl and mix it in with a wooden spoon. Add the chocolate chips and stir well.

put in the fridge for 5 minutes

Use a teaspoon to make small scoops of the mixture, spacing them well apart on the baking trays. This mixture should make about 9 cookies.

Bake for 8–10 mins until they are light brown on the edges and still slightly soft in the center if you press them.

Leave on the tray for a couple of minutes to set and then lift onto a cooling rack.
