Ingredients
 
 

  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened at room temperature
  • 1 cup superfine granulated sugar or caster sugar
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cup all purpose flour or plain flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 7 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla, beating to incorporate.
  • Slowly add the flour, baking soda and salt, beating until just combined.
  • Stir the chocolate chips through the dough with a spatula.
  • Scoop the dough into rounds and place on a piece of parchment or plate and place in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175C/155C Fan) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking sheets.
