"They are the best because the cookie is chewy and yummy. Mum puts them in my lunchbox and they are easy to make (mum made me write this)." - Rufus

Ingredients

• 115 grams butter melted

• ½ cup (105g) white sugar

• ½ cup (100g) brown sugar

• 1 egg

• 1 teaspoon vanilla

• 1 ½ cups (210g) flour

• ½ teaspoon baking soda

• ⅛ teaspoon salt

• ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F and prepare a baking tray with baking paper or a Silpat liner. Set aside.

• Melt the butter in a large pyrex jug in the microwave or in a large pot on the stove.

• Add the sugars to the melted butter and whisk together. Add the egg and vanilla and whisk again.

• Add the flour, baking soda, salt and chocolate chips and mix together well until all ingredients are incorporated.

• Spoon 12 even sized scoops onto the prepared baking tray - I like to use a small ice-cream scoop to make sure they are all the same size.

• Bake for 10-12 minutes for soft cookies or 12-14 minutes for crunchier cookies.

• Allow to cool on the tray for 10 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack.

• Store in an airtight container for 1 week.
