The Cookie Monster's Cookies


Quick and delicious biscuits, and the less uniform they turn out, the tastier they will look! Paired with a tale about sharing: while the Little Chefs waited for the biscuits to bake, they listened to the story of the Cookie Monster and the Cookie Tree



And watch that your little chefs don't eat all the chocolate chips while mixing the cookie dough...



Ingredients:

150 g salted butter
80 g soft light brown sugar
80 g granulated sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
225 g plain flour
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
200 g plain or milk chocolate chips

Method:

- preheat oven to 190'C/170'C fan
- place butter in the preheating oven to soften
- line two baking trays with baking paper
- beat butter and sugars with a spoon till creamy
- beat in the egg and the vanilla extract
- sift in the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt
- stir in the chocolate chips
- use a teaspoon to place little blobs of dough on the baking tray, leaving plenty of space between two - about 12 fits on one tray

- bake for 8 minutes, until light brown
- leave on tray for a few minutes, then transfer to cooling rack

The recipe is adapted from the BBC website.
