Ingredients

  • 250g dark cooking chocolate chips
  • 150g unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 100g CSR Caster Sugar
  • 160g CSR Brown Sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 165g White Wings Premium plain flour, sifted
  • 50g cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1 tsp baking powder, sifted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Sea salt, for sprinkling

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180*C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, or by using a double boiler. Don’t allow the bowl to touch the water. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the eggs and sugars together on high speed for 3 minutes, or until the mixture is pale and resembles thickened cream.
  4. Reduce the speed of your mixer to medium-low, add the melted chocolate, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
  5. Place tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto your prepared trays, spaced 3 cm apart (as they will spread). Bake for 13-15 minutes.
  6. Remove the baking trays from the oven, sprinkle each cookie with sea salt and leave for 30 minutes to cool and harden.
