Finding a good cookie recipe always used to seem so hard! Never really being able to match the ones you might get in coffee shops and in the £1.50 packets you get in the fresh bakery isle in supermarkets but honestly this is the best cookie recipe by far that works every time for me and I highly recommend it!
These American style cookies are chewy and soft, not to forget triple chocolate. Truly irresistible and just the recipe you’ve been looking for 😉 Give them a go and I’m sure all your friends will be impressed.
Recipe
Servings: up to 16 Prep Time: 15mins Cooking Time: 10-12mins Type: Traybake Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
- 110g/4oz Butter
- 200g/7oz Soft light brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 165g/5 1/2 oz Plain flour
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
- 30g/1 1/2oz Cocoa Powder
- 100g/3 1/2 oz White chocolate chips
- 100g/3 1/2 oz Dark chocolate chips
1. Preheat the oven to 190 oc or gas mark 5 and line two baking trays with greaseproof paper.
2. Mix together the butter and sugar.
3. Once combined, add the egg and vanilla, mix well. Add the flour, salt, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cocoa powder – this should form a stiff dough.
4. Add the chocolate chips. I don’t tend to buy chocolate chips instead I use a chocolate bar! (cheaper and generally better quality!). Just use a strong knife to chop the chocolate up in to little homemade chips.
5. Using a dessert spoon scoop up even balls of mixture, put them on the tray (fairly spaced apart) and press gently down using a fork. And that’s it! A super easy recipe! Bake them for around 10-12 minutes (they should be just starting to crack when you get them out). The cookies will seem soft but leave them to cool and they will be perfect :).

Loved this recipe – very easy and tasted great. My daughter always clamours for big chocolate cookies from the supermarket but these are better (and I know what’s in them). Win,win! Hold the faith when you take them out of the oven – I was site they weren’t cooked but they were just right when they cooled down.
Thank you so much for the feed back! I am very pleased you like them, yes hold the faith when you take them out of the oven! They will be perfect when cooled. Glad to hear your daughter liked them, they always go down well with family and friends when I share them x
Thanks for this recipe. They turned out just like a triple chocolate chip cookie should taste….perfect. Saved to my favourites! My 16 year old son said they’re the best I’ve ever made and I’ve made a lot!!!
Thank you so much for the feedback! There delicious aren’t they, one cookie is never enough!
Hi Emma! I absolutely love this recipe, definitely the best chewy cookie recipe I’ve found! I hope you don’t mind, but I’ve shared it on my blog (I’ve linked back to you) Because it really is amazing! Liddie x
I LOVE these cookies so much! haha so glad you enjoyed them! Thank you so much for mentioning me! I will go check it out!:D
My son’s girlfriend can’t have cows milk due to allergy, so I adapted this recipie by using dairy free chocolate, cocoa(green &blacks) soya milk , vita light (diary free) and the results were amazing! Thanks for the basic recipie, as my son’s girlfriend was very appreciative of her cookies.
Hey, That’s awesome! I will have to try this myself as I love ‘healthier’ and allergy friendly recipes. Great! 🙂
I reccomend less cocoa powder – or maybe I just used too much!
Anyway, very good cookies, easy to make and yummy, but less cocoa.
Maybe it is to strong to suit everyone, but at least you know next time add a little less and hopefully you will like them even more! 🙂
I found this recipe fantastic thanks so much it was amazing that I could even make them gluten free and they still turned out great 🙂 my family keeps nagging for more now lol!
That’s great to hear!! I do absolutely adore these cookies! Haha.
Such an easy recipe even for a disastrous cook like myself. Incredibly yummy too. Thank you for this recipe
