About the bake
These chocolate brownie cookies are a true melt in your mouth moment. The outside is slightly crisp, holding together a softer, gooey centre similar to a chocolate brownie. The Billington's unrefined light muscovado sugar adds to the gooiness, and rich flavour. If you're feeling super indulgent, replace the dark chocolate pieces with chunks of Terry's Chocolate Orange or After Eight, so good you'll want every last cookie to yourself!
Method
Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan, gas mark 4) and line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment
Step 2:
Melt the chocolate with the cocoa powder and butter in a heat proof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir occasionally until melted and combined, remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
Step 3:
Mix together the egg, sugar and vanilla extract until pale and fluffy then pour in the melted chocolate and mix well.
Step 4:
Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder and add to the chocolate mixture, finally fold in the broken chocolate pieces, or for a super indulgent twist try with pieces of After Eights or Terry's Chocolate Orange.
Step 5:
Cover the bowl and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes then divide the mixture 12 equal pieces and place onto the baking sheets leaving some space between to allow the cookies to spread out during baking.
Step 6:
Bake for 10 minutes until the tops are starting to crack and look glossy, the centre should still be soft. Leave to cool for about 10 minutes then transfer onto a cooling wire to cool completely.
Step 7:
The cookies will be very soft when warm but will firm up when cool.

These were amazing 🤩 they were were so moist and delicious 🤤
Mmmmm, gonna try these real soon !
Tried this with white chocolate mixing ingredients together was fine but very runny when baking. Flat when cooked please help. I think I will stick to plain chocolate.
Hi
We are sorry to hear that your cookies were flat, perhaps you could increase the amount of time that you chill the cookie dough for before baking. This will help keep the shape of the cookies when in the oven and prevent them from spreading out.

I have made these a few time great. we like these cookies a lot. Can these be made with white chocolate, would love to try it. If so what are they called.
Hi,
You can make a white chocolate variation of these cookies, simply replace the dark chocolate required in the recipe with white chocolate and instead of using 30g of cocoa powder just increase the amount of plain flour required to 70g.
