The Ultimate Triple Chocolate Cookies!

Hey beaut's!

Like many, during lock down I have been baking like theres no tomorrow, and yesterday I thought it was about time I whipped up a batch of the ultimate triple chocolate cookies! The recipe for these cookies is actually from my old Tanya Bakes book, but I thought I'd re-share the recipe just in case you guys and gals don't have the book and fancy baking some of these cookies for yourself! The recipe is actually really simple and quick which is always a bonus, and it makes 10 of the most enormous cookies!

Easy Creme Egg Cookies ♥

Hey beaut's!

I haven't done a baking blog post in absolutely ages which is quite surprising since I'm always baking at home, but today I'm back with an extremely scrumptious recipe that's easy to do and goes hand in hand with Easter - Creme Egg Cookies!

What You Will Need

200g butter

300g caster sugar

325g self-raising flour

1 egg

5 regular size Creme Eggs

How To

1. Firstly pre heat your oven too 180c or gas mark 5 and line a couple of baking sheets with greaseproof paper.

2. Then in a large mixing bowl, cream together your butter and caster sugar until it's pale and creamy, then pop in your egg and mix again.

3. Once all of your wet ingredients are well combined start adding the flour gradually, don't just throw it in all at once otherwise it will be so hard to mix together and your likely to get covered in flour in the process he he.

4. Then it's time to roughly chop up your Creme Eggs into different sized chunks, this is definitely easier to do if your Creme Eggs are at room temperature. Once your happy with your chopped up Creme Egg's add them to your cookie dough and mix again until the Creme Eggs are well incorporated through the cookie dough. You can actually pop in more Creme Eggs than 5 if you like which is what I wish I would of done, the more you pop in the more yummyness you'll get running through your cookies.

5. Roll your dough into balls and place them on your baking trays spaced apart, I did space mine quite far apart but they still spread massive and ended up touching each other so just bare in mind that the bigger your dough balls are the bigger they will spread.

6. Pop them into the oven and bake for around 8-10 minutes. When you remove your cookies they will probably still look quite dough like but that's completely normal, as long as they are a nice golden colour they are done and will firm up as they cool.

And there you have it, very easy but very yummy Creme Egg cookies! These are so nice because not only do you get the chunks of dairy milk running through the cookies but the goo from the inside of the Creme Eggs ends up melting and spreading through the cookies  giving you a slight chewy caramel consistency that actually tastes of Creme Egg, it's amazing! 

Do let me know what you'll be baking over Easter beaut's and if you give these yummy cookies a whirl, I'd love to know!

How To Make Yummy Chocolate Cookie's

Hey girlie's!!! As you might be aware if you follow me on Instagram or Twitter I'm always baking, in fact i love baking!! So a while ago whilst i was watching Tanya Burr on YouTube she made some cookies which looked yummy so i gave them a go, i thought id share with you how mine turned out and also share the recipe as they are delicious (this is my third batch, oops).

What you will need

* 2OOg unsalted butter

* 300g caster sugar

*1 large egg

*275g self-raising flour

* 75g cocoa powder

* 2 or 3 large chocolate bars, if you want to change it up abit you could use M&M's, marshmallows or even nuts. The list is endless really.

Firstly you'll need to cream the butter and caster sugar together, i always pop the butter in the microwave first for about 30 seconds just to make it super soft so its easy to mix with the  sugar. Crack in your egg at this point and give it another quick mix, then i pop in the self-raising flour and cocoa powder and mix again. If the mixture is a little dry then pop in a small drop of milk until u get a cookie dough consistency, then pop in your broken up squares of chocolate and mix throughout.

Line your baking trays with baking paper, i used 3 trays as my mixture always makes around 12-16 cookies, it all depends on how big or thick you want your cookies to how far the mixture will stretch. I use a tablespoon as my guide and then make them into palm sized balls and pop them on the trays equally apart.

Pop in a preheated oven at 200°C or Gas Mark 6 for 10 minutes. They will be very soft and sloppy when the 1o minutes is up so when u take them out the oven leave them to cool for a good 30 minutes before you remove them from the baking tray.

There you have it, yummy cookies that are simply and easy to make.

Let me know if you have made these yummy cookies before?? Did you try adding any new additions??
