Writing Wizards: Recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookie

Portsmouth Point editors have enjoyed working with Year 5's 'Writing Wizards' this term, who have written a series of articles that we are delighted to publish. This article is by Chloe Smith.

I love chocolate-chip cookies with milk-choc chips in them. Il like the actual cookie crispy and the choc chips gooey; they are my favourite type EVER.

What you need

150g salted butter, softened

80g light brown sugar

80g granulated sugar

1 large egg

225g plain flour

1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda

1/4 tsp salt

200g milk chocolate chips

Great. Now you've got all the ingredients you can get cooking.

Preparing the cookies:

1. Put your oven on 190’c (170’c for fan assisted ovens)
2. Line 2 baking sheets with non-stick paper
3. Put the butter and both sugars into a bowl and mix until creamy.
4. Add the egg, flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt into the bowl and mix with a spoon.
5. Now, the best bit, stir in the chocolate chips.
6. Then spoon the mixture onto the baking trays leaving a space between them.
7. Now bake for 8-10 minutes until they are golden and crisp, also another way to find out they are done put a knife down the middle and if the knife is clear then it is done.
8. Leave on the tray for a couple of mins to set and then lift onto a cooling rack.
9. Finally eat the golden, crispy, incredible, soft, chocolate chip cookies.
