Recipe's preparation

Method

11. Select the scales function and weigh in 185g of chilled butter to the bowl. Place lid and MC on top. Beat for 1 min on speed 4, turn the speed selector to beat. Butter should be creamier and softer after the 1 min.

2. Scrape down the bowl using your spatula, place the Butterfly Whisk in on top of blades, add in Both sugars. Using scales function, add 130g of Caster Sugar and 130g Light Brown Sugar.

Whipping for 1 min, on Speed 4 (no higher with the butterfly whisk). If the whisk comes off, press and stop the speed selector, remove and just use the blades. You may have to stop and start, scraping down the sides of bowl in between. Just make sure it's incorporated.

3. Lid on, remove the MC (measuring cup), set for 20 seconds, speed 3, and add 1 egg at a time, while combining the eggs with the mixture.

4. Remove butterfly whisk, select the scales function, Tare the scales in between each ingredient. Weigh in 160g Self raising flour, 240g Plain Flour. Then add in 1/4 tsp of Bicarbonate of Soda and 1 1/2 tsp of Baking powder, pinch of salt.

Place lid & MC on top. Combine for 1 min, on speed 3.5, or until fully incorporated.

"Counter-clockwise operation" 5. On reverse, Add in the chocolate chips and Nuts (or whatever you wish to add). Mix well, low speed 3 for 30 seconds, or until combined well. (increase the speed if you need and do another 15 seconds, just adjust to how you like).

6. Roll your balls into whichever size you wish to make (keeping in mind the bigger the cookies, the longer to bake). Place on your tray (doesn't matter at this point if you have them all on one tray). Place in fridge to set for minimin 3 hours (or you can freeze and bake at your convenience)

7. Pre-heat oven to 180 fan forced, use 2 trays, lined with baking paper, placing the balls at least 2-3 cm apart. Bake for 10-12 mins, or until lightly golden.

8. Allow to cool for 10-15 mins, before enjoying (cookies keep cooking and "set" when removed from oven and can fall apart if you don't let them sit first)

Once fully cooled, store in air tight container and enjoy!
