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.
