Ingredients

  • 100g/3½oz unsalted butter
  • 450g/1lb dark chocolate
  • 4 free-range eggs
  • 340g/12oz soft brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 170g/6oz plain flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 450g/1lb milk chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 170C/345F/Gas 3½. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking parchment.
  • Place the butter and chopped dark chocolate in a bowl suspended over a pan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water). When melted, remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Place the eggs, sugar and vanilla in a large mixing bowl and whisk with a handheld electric mixer and until creamy.
  • Beat in the melted chocolate and butter mixture, then beat in the flour, salt and baking powder.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Use a tablespoon to place small heaps of the mixture on the lined baking tray at least 5cm/2in apart. Bake each tray for 10-15 minutes until the cookies are still soft in the centre but set around the edge.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
