Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe is best made with chocolate chopped up roughly. The mixture is very soft; chilling it slightly before shaping makes it easier to work with.

Ingredients:
250g butter
1/2 c sugar
3 T sweetened condensed milk
1 - 2 drops vanilla essence
2 1/4 c plain flour
2 t baking powder
250 g Energy chocolate, hand chopped into chunks, not too small

Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 170 degrees celsius.
  2. Beat together butter and sugar until creamy.
  3. Beat in the condensed milk and vanilla essence.
  4. Stir in dry ingredients and chopped chocolate.
  5. Chill.
  6. Roll into large walnut-sized balls.
  7. Place on cold, greased oven trays, allowing some room to flatten.
  8. Flatten with the palm of your hand.
  9. Bake at 170 degrees celsius for 15 - 20 minutes until lightly golden.
  10. Cool, then remove from trays and store in an airtight container.

Makes about 30 biscuits.
