Nutty Chocolate Chip Cookies (makes approximately 20 cookies)
Really easy to make and so tasty...
· 250g Porridge oats
· 125g Dark chocolate drops or broken up chocolate
· 50g Blanched almonds, chopped
· 75g Roasted hazelnuts, chopped
· 125g Soft brown sugar
· 2 Eggs
· 125g Softened butter
Pre heat the oven to 1800C/Gas Mark 4
Put all of the ingredients, except the eggs and butter, into a bowl and mix together.
Beat the egg and mix into the dry ingredients, followed by the butter, stirring until a chunky dough forms.
Use your hands to make small balls out of the dough and place on a non-stick baking sheet, or a baking tin covered with BacoFoil Non-Stick foil. Make sure you leave enough space between each of the balls as they will spread.
Bake for about 15 minutes in the middle of the oven. Remove the cookies from the oven and place on a wire cooling rack until completely cool.
