guest chef - The Hub

Twice in one week The Hub made biscuits, once for us to eat here at home and once again for the club that I help to run every six weeks or so for the kids in Jacob's class to meet up and play together, trade some cards, sell some old toys etc.

The Hub made these:-

Chocolate chip cookies, courtesy of http://laureneasmith.blogspot.co.uk/2008/05/millies-cookie-recipe.html#!/2008/05/millies-cookie-recipe.html

Ingredients

125g softened butter
100g light brown sugar
125g caster sugar
1 egg
1tsp vanilla extract
200g chocolate chips (but Hub broke up an unwanted dark chocolate bar for this batch)
225g self-raising flour
half tsp salt

Oven pre-heated to 180 degrees centigrade


Method

Cream the sugars and butter together
Mix in a beaten egg along with the vanilla extract
Sift the flour and salt mixing well (gets a little tough to do but go for it)
Add the choc chips or broken choc bar and combine
Roll into walnut size balls and place on a baking tray with a good distance apart as they melt and spread
Cook in oven for around 7-10 mins depending on how gooey you like your bikkies!

Cool on a tray or eat straight away, they are soooooooooooooooooo delicious

Thanks to Lauren Smith for this lovely recipe and thanks to The Hub for making them
