This recipe is probably my favourite cookie recipe as they always turn out so great! I was a bit unsure about using cups to measure out the ingredients with at first (I normally use ounces or grams) but the cookies turned out fine.
I can't remember where I got the original recipe from unfortunately, as I printed it out a while ago.

You Will Need (11 things)

  • ¼ cup Softened Butter
  • ¼ cup Brown Sugar
  • ½ cup White White Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Egg White
  • 1 cup Self-Raising Flour
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • Pinch Of Salt
  • ¼ cup Cocoa Powder
  • 3/10 cup Chocolate Chips
  • 2 drop Milk

Steps (5 steps, 35 minutes)

  1. 1

    Pre-heat your oven to 375 degrees or gas mark 5. Grease or line 2 baking trays.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugars together until creamy. Add the egg white and vanilla extract and mix until blended well.

  3. 3

    In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder. Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg and sugar. The recipe didn't state to use any milk, but I found it practically impossible to mix without any, so I added a few drops to make it easier. Stir in the chocolate chips.

  4. 4

    Drop cookie dough by the teaspoonful (I used my hands and rolled into ball shapes as the mixture is quite sticky!) on to your greased baking tray.

  5. 5

    Bake for 10-12 minutes. When cooked, leave cookies on the baking tray for a minute or so, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
