The Composing Cook GIANT TRIPLE CHOCOLATE CHIP C KIES

As we approach Valentines Day, there’s only one way to say “I Love You”, and that is through Chocolate. Not just one type, but how about a triple hit of it, via my Giant Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies. Come on, you know you want to.

INGREDIENTS: 125g butter 75g light brown sugar 50g caster sugar 125g dark chocolate 1 large egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 150g plain flour 30g cocoa powder 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda ½ teaspoon salt 125g dark chocolate chips 125g milk chocolate chips 100g white chocolate chips Makes 12 Giant Cookies Preheat the oven to 170° or fan 160° and have 2 baking trays ready, which have been lined with greaseproof paper.

In a free standing mixer, add the butter, light brown sugar, caster sugar and beat until well combined.

Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave and add this to the mixer along with the egg, vanilla extract and give it another mix.

In a separate bowl mix together the plain flour, cocoa powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt. With the mixer on add this dry mix, 1 tablespoon at a time, to the mixer until well combined. Now add all the chocolate chips and mix well.

Take a tablespoon and divide the mixture into 12 rough balls, placing six on each tray making sure you leave enough room in between each one.

Place trays in the oven and cook for 18 minutes.

Remove from the oven and leave on the baking trays for 5 minutes.

Place the cookies on a cooling rack so they continue to cool and harden.

Once cooled, eat at your pleasure and remember to share, let’s not forget; it is Valentine’s Day after all.

Having grown up in Bedford Eleanor set up Tutor Doctor in 2019 having previously worked in a local school as a Careers Officer. She has been helping students grow in confidence and ability within Bedford and the surrounding villages ever since. Tutor Doctor Bedford offers a tailor-made tutoring service which is designed to meet the child where they are and get them to where they want to be. Eleanor thoroughly assesses a student’s needs and then carefully selects the best-fit tutor based on goals, personality and learning level. As a working mum of two school age children, Eleanor completely understands the constant juggling families are facing and also recognises just how hard it can be for children at the moment. The online provision provided by schools has improved dramatically since the previous lockdown, but Eleanor is seeing first-hand how some children are struggling to maintain focus and motivation. This is where one-to-one, bespoke tuition can really help. Eleanor’s tutors are all hand-picked, experienced and well qualified. All of them have an enhanced DBS check and will help students with their studies in addition to helping develop those all-important executive functioning skills, add routine to the week and help maintain resilience during these challenging times.

All tuition is currently delivered online via a purpose-built virtual learning platform and can move to in-home once it is safe to do so, at times which are convenient to you and your family.
