Method

• step 1

  Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment.

  

• step 2

  Cream the butter and sugars together until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla.

  

• step 3

  Once combined, stir in the flour, bicarb, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt.

  

• step 4

  Scoop 10 large tbsps of the mixture onto the trays, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading.

  

• step 5

  Bake for 10-12 mins or until firm at the edges but still soft in the middle – they will harden a little as they cool.

  

• step 6

  Leave to cool on the tray for a few mins before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.
