Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until they’re light and fluffy. Add in the egg and mix until well combined.
- Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Fold these dry ingredients into the butter mixture.
- Add the chocolate chips and mix again. Pack down into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Lightly flour your hands and roll the dough into balls, each weighing about 30g. Gently flatten each cookie as you place them onto the lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- For the topping, melt the chopped dark chocolate in a bowl over gently simmering water. Once melted, dip a fork into the chocolate and drizzle in a zig-zag motion over each cookie. Allow to set.
Lianne’s Tip: If you prefer white chocolate, you can replace the dark chocolate drizzle topping with white chocolate instead.
