Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C with the fan on.

- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and bring together.Ensure not to mix too much as you don't want to develop gluten. Add 80g of the chocolate chips, and mix through the cookie dough leaving 20g to decorate before baking.
- Cover the bowl and put it in the fridge to cool for 30 mins or freezer for 10 minutes.Line a baking tray with baking parchment.Remove cookie dough from the fridge or freezer and scoop a generous heaped tablespoon for each cookie (approx 45g each). Roll into a ball. We fit 5 cookies on a standard baking tray (on a 40 x 28 cm tray), ensure to space them out even to give space for them to spread as they bake
- Pat flat with the palm of your hand. Using the remaining 20g of choc chips and add to the top of each cookie
