Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment. Beat the butter and sugars in a bowl until light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs one at a time.

  • step 2

    Add the flour, malted milk drink powder, baking powder and a good pinch of salt, then stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a dough. Tip out onto the work surface and gently knead in the chocolate. Divide the mixture into 20 pieces, roughly the size of a whole walnut. Roll each piece into a ball and place on the baking trays, leaving plenty of room for the cookies to spread. Flatten each ball slightly with your hand.

  • step 3

    Bake for 10-12 mins until starting to turn golden brown on the edges. Remove from the oven, leave on the baking tray for 5 mins to cool slightly then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep in a cake tin or cookie jar for up to 5 days.

Add 1 egg not 2

Mixture was too wet and moist so was too sticky to form a dough.If you are making these don’t add two eggs

Made these with my son, I added some orange essence for extra flavouring and put the dough in the fridge so when I took it out it was no longer sticky and was nice and smooth and prevented them from over spreading in the oven

Made these yesterday, while they taste nice they just melted into one giant cookie. Definitely something wrong with the recipe, would probably go just one egg and probably miss out the caster sugar as Horlicks is quite sweet anyway.

We found the mixture too sticky to knead so resorted to spoons, maybe use one egg, although there are a lot of dry ingredients.
