Servings: 12 Cookienuts
Ingredients
Cookie Dough
- 125 g unsalted butter
- 100 g light brown sugar
- 75 g white granulated sugar
- 1 medium egg
- 1 tsp vanilla (optional!)
- 300 g plain flour
- 1 + 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 150 g dark chocolate chips/chunks
- 150 g milk chocolate chips/chunks
Decoration
- 100 g milk chocolate
- 100 g white chocolate
- chocolate sprinkles/biscuit crumbs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200ºc/180ºfan and grease the doughnut moulds (this recipe makes 12 cookienuts)
- Add the butter and sugars to a bowl and beat until creamy
- Add in the egg, and vanilla, and beat again
- Add in the plain flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt and beat until a cookie dough is formed
- Add in the chocolate chips and beat until they are distributed well
- Split the cookie dough equally into 12 and press into the doughnut mould. I get a scoop of cookie dough, slightly roll it into a sausage and press into the mould
- Place the moulds onto a baking tray
- Bake the cookienuts in the oven for 12-14 minutes and then cool for 15+ minutes
- Once baked and slightly cooled I put them into the fridge/freeze to firm up and chill quicker to make decoration easier
- Melt the milk chocolate and white chocolate separately into bowls
- Dunk half of the cookienuts into the milk chocolate, and the other half into the white chocolate
- Drizzle over the opposite flavour chocolate and add on some sprinkles. Set in the fridge and enjoy!
