1.
Prepare your baking tray:
Line a tray with greaseproof paper or a silicone mat. Have an ice cream scoop ready to portion the dough.2.
Cream the butter and sugars:
Into a bowl, add All Things Butter Chocolate and sugars. Cream together for a minute or two until combined.3.
Add the egg and condensed milk:
Next, add the egg and condensed milk. Mix well.4.
Mix the dry ingredients:
In a separate bowl, add the plain flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and cocoa powder. Mix well using a balloon whisk.5.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients:
Add the chocolate chips to the flour, before adding to the butter bowl. Mix this until everything has combined and no visible streaks of flour are left. By this point, it should very much look like a dough.6.
Shape the dough:
Use the ice cream scoop to scoop out dough balls. Press each dough ball into the chopped chocolate chunks and place them onto your lined baking tray. The taller you shape your cookie dough ball (i.e., cylindrically as opposed to round), the chunkier the cookie will be.7.
Freeze the dough:
Place the baking tray into the freezer and leave for at least four to six hours but preferably overnight.Now, all that’s left is to bake these beauties until golden brown and enjoy! Once you’ve taken a bite, you’ll understand why these buttery chocolate cookies are a true testament to Ruby Bhogal’s baking expertise. They’re sure to become a staple in your baking repertoire, a delightful treat to share with loved ones, or a perfect indulgence to savor on a cozy evening.
