Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Recipe given to me many years ago by Julia Charlesworth.
50g softened butter
50g granulated sugar
40g light brown soft sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
1 egg
125g plain flour
1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/4 tsp salt
175g plain chocolate cut into large chunks
175g white chocolate cut into large chunks
Cream butter until smooth. Add the rest of the ingredients except chocolate, and mix. Add chocolate and mix in well. At this point it will look like a bowl full of chocolate chunks, with the tiniest amount of dough holding it all together.
Place large dollops well spaced on a greased baking tray and bake (180C/350F) for around 10 minutes. They should just start to be turning brown when they come out. Don't overcook - they are supposed to be soft in the centre.
Leave on baking tray for ten minutes to rest and then transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.

That reminds me - I was driving up to Manchester today and spent some time sat behind a lorry from Wiesbaden...
