I made these tasty babies, as a treat for some nice people in my life. They might just be the easiest cookies to make, ever, and taste deliciously buttery.
Ingredients
5oz self-raising flour
4oz butter
2oz caster sugar
Handful dark chocolate chips
Handful chopped hazelnuts (you can leave these out if you prefer and just have chocolate chip cookies)
Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 4/180c/350f, and grease two baking trays.
Rub the butter into the rest of the ingredients, until the mixture resembles a fine crumb.
Roll the dough into small balls approximately 1" in diameter, and place on the baking trays about 2" apart (they will expand quite a lot in the oven). Flatten the cookies slightly with the back of a fork or spoon.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 10-12 minutes, until pale gold. Or, leave them in to go a little darker - I prefer them like this, they taste almost caramelised whereas when they're paler they taste like a crunchy version of shortbread.
Leave to cool on a wire rack, then enjoy!
