Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

Method

1. 1

   Cream butter and sugar

   Beat butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.

2. 2

   Add dry ingredients

   Sift together flour, cocoa, bicarbonate of soda, and salt. Fold into the butter mixture until just combined.

3. 3

   Fold in chocolate chips

   Fold in the mixed chocolate chips. The dough will be thick and fudgy.

4. 4

   Bake

   Preheat oven to 175°C. Scoop dough into balls onto lined trays. Bake for 10–12 minutes. They will look underdone — that is correct.

5. 5

   Cool

   Cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring. They firm up to a fudgy, brownie-like texture as they cool.
