Description
Make classic, soft, and chewy chocolate chip cookies using your Thermomix for consistent results and simple preparation.
Ingredients
Scale
- 120 g unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 100 g brown sugar
- 45 g white sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 215 g plain flour
- ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 150 g chocolate chips (plus extra for decorating)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C fan (180°C conventional). Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
- Soften the butter: Place the butter cubes into the Thermomix bowl. Mix for 12 sec/speed 5 until softened. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl and under the lid with a spatula.
- Cream the butter & sugars: Add both sugars to the mixing bowl. Mix for 20 sec/speed 4. Scrape the bowl thoroughly, including under the blades. Mix again for 15 sec/speed 4, until smooth and creamy.
- Add the egg & vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix for 15 sec/speed 3. Scrape and repeat once more.
- Add the dry ingredients: Add the flour, bicarb of soda and salt. Mix for 10 sec/speed 4, scrape down the bowl and mix again for 3 sec/speed 4.
- Add chocolate: Stir in the chocolate chips by hand with a spatula.
- Shape & bake: Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls and place 5 cm apart on the baking tray. Press a few extra chocolate chips on top.
- Bake one tray at a time for 12–14 minutes, until golden around the edges but still soft in the centre. Keep the second tray chilled while the first bakes.
- Cool: Leave the cookies on trays for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. They will firm up as they cool.
Notes
- If the dough feels too soft to handle, place it in the fridge for 20 minutes before shaping.
- If stirring in the Thermomix bowl feels difficult, transfer the dough to a regular mixing bowl before adding the chocolate.
