My Mum’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Posted July 31st, 2012 by Lottie & filed under Biscuits. A few months ago I posted my Blueberry, Lemon and White Chocolate Cookies and I mentioned that I would treat you all to my Mum’s cookie recipe. She is the queen of chocolate chip cookies and her simple recipe works every time . It creates lovely crumbly cookies with big chunks of chocolate and they taste delicious too! I have been busy volunteering at the Olympic Park this week and haven’t had a lot of time to bake, while I’m sure that won’t last long and my oven will be in full use again soon, it has been very very exciting being at the Olympic Park (if you are there look out for me at Park Live!). I am in full Olympic swing at the moment and the only baking I have done has been Olympic themed! Olympic ring biscuits and torch flame mini cupcakes to celebrate the Opening Ceremony and kick start my Olympic weekend! On Saturday I went to watch the men’s road race and then Sunday was my first day at the park. Busy busy! However I thought I would use this time to blog about my Mum’s cookies, luckily when she gave me some recently I managed to get some photos of them before they were demolished by my family! You will need: 5oz salted butter 3oz soft brown sugar 8oz self raising flour 1 egg a few drops of vanilla extract 100g milk chocolate Mix the butter, sugar, flour, egg and vanilla together to form a dough. Hammer a bar of chocolate (in my Mum’s words!) and add the chunks of chocolate to the dough and mix well. Form the dough into balls and squash slightly. Place on a lightly greased baking tray and bake at 140C for about 10 to 15 minutes. If you can bear to wait, leave them to cool and then enjoy with a glass of milk or cup of tea!
