I'm starting my detox on Monday so I'm trying to ram loads of unhealthy, ridiculously high in calorie foods into me before i start having to turn them down :( Thanks to
Vivianna Does Makeup today i've been busy baking these delicious, gooey, completely chocolatey treats! (I don't even want to know how many calories are in these) but they are SO worth it. I bake quite regularly but i've never been very impressed with the cookie recipes i've made before. Never the less, i couldn't be any more satisfied with these ones that i've made! They taste exactly like Ben's Cookies... and dare i say it.... BETTER than Millie's Cookies. Creds to the guy Anna got the recipe from!!
If you want to make these cookies then you will need:
- 200g unsalted butter
- 300g caster sugar
- 1 large egg
- 257g self-raising flour
- 75g cocoa powder
- a dash of milk
- 2 BIG bars of chocolate of your choice (I used milky bar and cadburys)
pre-heat oven to 220°C (200°C for non-fan)
1. chuck your butter and sugar into a mixing bowl and stir until it's creamy and fluffy (make sure your butter is at room temperature, otherwise you'll be there forever trying to mix them together)
2. add your egg into the mixture and stir until it's all mixed in well
3. sift the flour and cocoa powder into the mixture and fold that in- this will take a while if your not using an electric whisk! you'll probably find that the mixture is really dry so if it is then just add a splash of milk until the mixture is stiff but not dry and not runny. it should be at a texture where its hard to stir because it's so firm
4. break up the chocolate and throw into the mixture then give it another mixture together
5. line two or three trays with baking paper and from the mixture grab golf ball sized balls, roll them into balls and place apart on the tray (the cookies are going to flatten quite a bit so make sure they're a generous space apart).
6. pop them into the oven for about 9-12 minutes depending on how gooey and sloppy you want them. i had them in the oven for 10 so that the chocolate was completely melted but they were done around the edges.
7. Let them cool down for about 10-20 minutes and then BAM you can enjoy your cookies.
you could also add different things into the cookies such as peanut butter, fluff, marshmellows, smarties, m&m's.....
if you bake these cookies then you can upload a picture of them and tag me in it (daisyfleurxo) so i can see you guys' cookies
im going to go and eat a cookie now because writing this blogpost has made me want one.... YUMMY
