Method

  • step 1

    Mix the butter and sugar together with a wooden spoon. Stir in the flour and cocoa, followed by the chocolate chips – you’ll probably need to mix it together with your hands at this stage. Halve the dough and roll each piece into a log about 5cm thick. Wrap in cling film and chill for 1 hr or for several days. Can be frozen for up to 1 month.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Slice logs into 1cm-thick rounds, transfer to a baking tray lined with baking parchment and bake for 10-12 mins. Cool on the tray.

I doubled the quantity, used 100g mini cholate chips, 100g chopped almonds, they may break on slicing but you can just press them back together. Made 4 logs, froze 2. I Baked for 15 mins which was good, may try 14 next time and see.

Just made these using normal caster sugar and soft spread instead - they still taste delicious.

Yuck. Nowhere near the correct taste. Plastic margerine? What were you thinking of?

Used a very sharp knife, but breaking up when I’m cutting through (a real pain) no one else mentioning it so not sure what I’m doing wrong. Made what should have been easy a bit of a faff
