After dinner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recipe from bbcgoodfood, fairly straighforward, with a scary amount of sugar, which I have not reduced today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>150g of soft butter creamed with 160g of sugar, half and half white and brown. 1 whole egg, a bit of vanilla paste. 225g of plain flour and 1\/2 tsp of bicarb soda. A pinch of salt, then chocolate- I used Milka, chopped into small pieces and a good handful of hazelnuts too.  Thick dough we were shaping into small balls and placing on baking sheet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They went into the oven at 180 degrees for about 12-13 minutes, they did spread considerably. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nice cookies, good combo with a cup of tea, will be packed to school tomorrow to be enjoyed by 11 year olds who don&#8217;t have to worry about their waistlines. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Had to be made to satisfy a craving, of which there are many, when the weather sucks the way it did today.
