THE COOKIE DRAGONS CHOCOLATE CHIPPERS

THE COOKIE DRAGONS CHOCOLATE CHIPPERS

100 g butter at room temperature, plus extra for greasing
4 Tbsp sunflower oil
1 medium egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp molasses
225 g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
75 g granulated sugar
55 g dark brown sugar
180 g chocolate drops
40 g broken pecan nuts
25 g raisins (if you like em, I do!)

Preheat the oven to 190 :C / 375 :F / Gas 5. Grease 2 baking sheets with a
little bit of butter. Cream the butter and oil together in a large bowl with
a whisk until light and creamy. Add all the wet ingredients - the egg,
vanilla extract and molasses - and mix together.
In a large bowl, put all the dry ingredients - flor, baking powder, salt,
sugars, chocolate drops, pecan nuts and raisins (if you're using them) - and
mix well with a big spoon.
Dribble the wet stuff on to the dry stuff and mix with a spoon. You will know
when you're done mixing because you wont be able to see any more white
flour in the bowl.
Put heaped tablespoonfuls of the mixture on to the baking trays, leaving
some space around each. Pat down with your finger to make them round
(neatness does not count!).
Bake in the middle of the oven for about 10 minutes until golden. Leave em
to cool and eat em all up (before anyone else can get their hands on em).
Then make some more!
