Ingredients
100g butter, softened
125g brown sugar, softened
2 tsp vanilla essence
1 egg
150g self-raising flour
½ tsp baking powder, sieved
40g cocoa powder, sieved
100g hazelnuts, chopped
50g dark chocolate chips
Method
Preheat oven to 170°C and line two large flat baking trays with parchment.
Mix the butter and sugar until soft and creamy. Slowly add in the vanilla and eggs until combined.
Combine the flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder and add this mixture to the butter one. Mix them well and add the chopped nuts and chocolate chips.
Spoon 12 large spoons of the mixture onto your baking trays. Leave space for them to spread. Bake for about 12 minutes — they will harden a little more after you take them out. Allow them to cool on the trays.
