Chocolate chip cookies

Cookies can be a hard thing to make but these ones came out like the ones that you get from the shops. The recipe I used came from my Mum, I don't know where she got it from though. They are seriously good, honestly. Sort of cakey and squidgey and found that if you have them with ice cream it is like that desert from Pizza Hut.

I do recommend that when you are eating them you forget just how much butter goes in there though.

So you will need 200g of margarine, 200g of sugar, one egg, 225g of self raising flour, two tablespoons of cocoa powder and a packet of chocolate chips.

So mix the butter and sugar together in a bowl until fluffy, then mix in the egg but make sure it remains fluffy. Then fold in the flour, cocoa powder and the chocolate chips.

Get a baking tray and drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the baking sheets, space them out quite a bit because they will get quite a bit bigger. Then simply bake for 10-12 minutes in the oven at gas mark four. Remove them from the oven whilst they are still soft so be careful when removing them from the baking tray and leave to cool until they become firm.
