Peanut Butter & Chocolate Cookies
- 100 g dark chocolate, broken into pieces
- 115 g crunchy peanut butter
- 75 g butter, at room temperature
- 100 g soft brown sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- 115 g self-raising flour
- Pre-heat oven to 180C/Gas 4.
- Line two trays with baking paper.
- In a bowl mix the butter, brown sugar, and peanut butter.
- Add the beaten egg and beat well.
- Melt the chocolate.
- Either in the microwave (careful it burns VERY easily) or in a large bowl over a simmering pan of water.
- Add the chocolate to the mixture and stir till even.
- Slowly add the flour, being sure the dough is evenly mixed.
- I generally use my hand to roll the dough into one inch balls which I then press onto the tray.
- Bake for 12 minutes, then leave to cool another 5.
- Transfer to a wire rack and leave to harden.
