Tom had a little friend over the other day and the two of them had great fun taking turns measuring, mixing and cracking the egg, then taking little spoonfuls of dough and rolling it. They made small balls and a couple of big balls and a few sausage shaped experiments which all worked really well as the big biscuits stayed deliciously chewy inside while the smaller ones were crisp!
When they were cooked we took them down to the garden on a tray with some milk and cups and a few nice apples for a lovely Autumn picnic.
75g melted butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup dark choc chip melts (These are better than the ones that hold their shape in my opinion!)
whole pecans to decorate
Preheat your oven to 180•c
In a big bowl mix together the sugar, beaten egg and melted butter. Then sift in the flour and baking powder and mix together with the choc chips. Then take small spoonfuls of mixture and, roll into balls and place well spaced on baking paper lined trays.
Pop them in the oven for 8 - 10 minutes. You can start the first batch while the second tray is still being rolled then swap the position of the trays in the oven if it needs browning up a bit more by putting it up higher for the last few minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool, and when completely cooled store them in an airtight container.
