Ingredients
- 200g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 85g light muscovado sugar
- 85g golden caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 225g self-raising flour
- 50g plain chocolate, 50-70% cocoa, roughly chopped
- 50g white chocolate, roughly chopped
- 85g natural colour glacé cherry, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, 'sugars' and egg and beat until blended. Then, add the flour, chocolates and cherry pieces as well as the salt and mix until evenly distributed. Scoop out 20 large, rough balls and spread them apart onto a non-stick baking sheet. Note that the cookies will spread as they bake. This cookie dough can also be frozen.
- Step 2: Cook in the oven for 12-14 minutes until just lightly browned on the outside but still slightly soft in the center. If starting from frozen, leave in the oven a bit longer. Leave on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack with a spatula and allowing to cool completely.
