Malteser cookies!
Updated: Oct 11, 2020
Ingredients -
300g plain flour
120g unsalted butter
80g light brown sugar
70g granulated sugar
1 medium egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
A pinch of salt
100g milk chocolate
150g Maltesers, chopped.
Instructions -
In a bowl, beat together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
Add in the egg and vanilla extract. Mix to combine.
Add in the flour, salt, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda. Mix until it forms a dough.
Fold in the milk chocolate and chopped Maltesers so they are well distributed throughout.
Roll the cookie dough into 10 even balls. I weighed mine out to be approximately 90g each.
Place in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up. In the meantime, preheat your oven to 170 degrees fan.
Once firm, place on a tray lined with parchment paper. I usually do 5 per tray.
Push down gently on the dough balls to help them spread out.
Bake in the oven for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.
Take out of the oven and allow to cool on the side.
Enjoy!
