Cookies; something to make with the kids on lockdown

This recipe is a request from the Facebook page.

Cookies are great to make with kids, they’re easy, quick and delicious (and kids love them!)

To the recipe, this is a sightly simplified version to make it easier for the kids.

Ingredients (Makes 15-20 cookies)

  • 300g plain flour
  • 200g caster sugar
  • 200g butter (melted)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 100-200g chocolate chips or broken up chocolate bars

Prep and cooking (30 minutes)

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C (fan).
  2. Mix the melted butter, vanilla extract and sugar together with a wooden spoon in a mixing bowl.
  3. Sift the flour and baking powder and mix well.
  4. Add the chocolate chips and mix.
  5. Line a baking tray (or trays) with baking paper.
  6. Roll the cookie dough into small balls (you should get 15-20) and flatten them slightly onto the baking tray leaving about 2 inches between them.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes (it depends on the size) until the edges start to turn slightly golden.
  8. Enjoy! (I prefer them when they’re still warm).
