Best cookies ever!


This is the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever tasted! i found the recipe at http://www.nigella.com 




Ingredients: 

  • 125 gram(s) dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa solids)
  • 150 gram(s) plain flour
  • 30 gram(s) cocoa powder (sieved)
  • 1 teaspoon(s) bicarbonate of soda
  • ½ teaspoon(s) salt
  • 125 gram(s) butter (soft)
  • 75 gram(s) light brown sugar
  • 50 gram(s) white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
  • 1 medium egg(s) (cold from the fridge)
  • 350 gram(s) dark chocolate chips (or semi sweet chocolate morsels)


Method:

  • Preheat the oven to 170°C/gas mark 3. Melt the 125g dark chocolate either in the microwave or in a heatproof dish over a pan of simmering water.
  • Put the flour, cocoa, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a bowl.
  • Cream the butter and sugars in another bowl. (I use my freestanding mixer, itself an odd source of comfort to me.) Add the melted chocolate and mix together.
  • Beat in the vanilla extract and cold egg, and then mix in the dry ingredients. Finally stir in the chocolate morsels or chips.
  • Scoop out 12 equal-sized mounds - an ice cream scoop and a palette knife are the best tools for the job - and place on a lined baking sheet about 6cm apart. Do not flatten them.
  • Cook for 18 minutes, testing with a cake tester to make sure it comes out semi-clean and not wet with cake batter. If you pierce a chocolate chip, try again.
  • Leave to cool slightly on the baking sheet for 4-5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack to harden as they cool.
