Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Chunks not chips.

These chocolate chunk cookies are delicious and the chunks are far superior to chips!

Everyone loves homemade chocolate chip cookies. There's just something about them that makes all the store-bought kind pale in comparison and these are no exception!

Ingredients

150g softened butter

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

½ cup caster sugar

½ cup brown sugar

1¾ cup plain flour

1-1 1/2 cups chocolate chunks (I use Nestle or Cadbury blocks then break them up)

Method

1) Preheat oven to 160°C. Line two baking trays with baking paper and put aside. 
2) Place the butter, caster sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in a medium/large bowl and beat with an electric beater for 1-2 minutes or until smooth and well combined. Beat in egg.

3) Gradually stir in flour to create a very soft dough. Stir in chocolate chunks.
4)  Spoon mixture onto lined baking trays leaving some space between cookies for a lot of spreading. Press down lightly on each cookie. 
5) Bake for 20-30 minutes or until light golden and cooked almost all the way through. Cool before storing in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
6) ENJOY!
