Now Mum –
before you start fanning yourself and exclaiming that I shouldn’t be eating
cookies due to the bottom the size of China issue – please note this was as
part of my efforts to turn my road into Wysteria Lane.
One of
my lovely neighbours had a gorgeous baby girl a few weeks ago, and as she had a
rather long birth ended in an emergency C-Section I felt she was definitely in
need of some spoiling. So I googled 'best ever cookies' and this
recipe came up!
It worked really well was super easy, making me
look like Bree Van De Kamp. They are
doughy, gooey, and indulgent just like Ben's Cookies.
Double Chocolate Cookies, Makes 12: 200g butter,
200g golden soft sugar, 100gcaster sugar, 1 large egg, 275g self-raising flour,
75g cocoa powder, three BIG bars of chocolate (white, milk and dark), a dollop
of milk.
Blend the butter and sugar, really soft almost runny butter works best. Then basically shove everything else in - if it is a bit dry add a dash of milk. The choc should be quite decent sized chunks.
Bake for about 10
mins, maybe less. If they come out
looking a bit raw don't worry, as they cool they will continue to cook a bit
and you want them nice and gooey.
Here they are pre
oven – do admire the lovely Mrs Chicken in the background
And here is the
finished object.

So just pop on a
full face of make up, pop them into a charming basket with a gingham ribbon and
deliver 90%* of them to your nicest neighbour.
*Obviously Mr Rose
wasn't going to let all of my baking leave the house unsampled
Happy Baking!
