As promised, here is the second recipe for the cookie I made before Christmas, Chocolate and Walnut Cookies:
Ingredients
- 250g of Plain Flour
- 1/2 tsp of Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp of Salt
- 170g of Butter
- 200g of Brown Sugar
- 100g of Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 200g of White Chocolate Chunks
- 200g of Walnuts (crushed up)
Chocolate and Walnut Cookies
Method
- Preheat the oven to 170C
- Line a baking tray with baking paper
- Sift the dry ingredients together and set aside
- In a bowl cream together the butter, brown sugar and caster sugar
- When smooth beat in the eggs until light and creamy
- Mix in the flour mixture gradually and combine together
- Finally add the chocolate chunks and walnuts and mix through
- Spoon dough onto the baking tray – I used a heaped tablespoon for each – do not flatten
- Make sure that each cookie is a few centimetres apart to allow for baking as they will spread
- Bake for around 13-15 minutes
- Once cooked take out of the oven and leave on the baking tray to cool
If you are a fan of cookies, these were also really yummy, the best thing about these recipes is that you can actually freeze the batter too. Just roll it into a tube and wrap in cling film, then when you want a cookie of 5, just cut it into slices and bake as above, isn´t that just a genius idea?
It was really nice to be baking again, I really need to find time to do it more this year, maybe I will get the baby involved too! Is there anything you would like to see me do? As always, let me know in the comments.
