Ingredients
120 g butter, softened
1/2 cup caster sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
2 tbsp chocolate-flavored cream syrup
2 1/3 cups plain flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
75 g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
1/3 cup milk chocolate chips
Vanilla ice-cream, to serve
For the chocolate sauce:
1/2 cup thickened cream
100 g dark chocolate, chopped
2 tbsp chocolate-flavored cream syrup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease and line a 22 cm round springform pan with baking paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, caster sugar, and dark brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and chocolate-flavored cream syrup, and beat until smooth.
- Sift in the flour and bicarbonate of soda, then mix until just combined.
- Stir through the chopped dark chocolate and milk chocolate chips.
- Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan and flatten the surface gently.
- Bake for about 35 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges and soft in the center.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, make the chocolate sauce: heat the cream in a small saucepan until just simmering, remove from heat, add the chopped chocolate, and let stand for 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth, then stir in the chocolate syrup.
- Serve the cookie warm, drizzled with the chocolate sauce and topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Avoid overbaking to keep the cookie soft and chewy in the center.
Add chopped nuts, caramelized chocolate, or a pinch of sea salt for variation.
The cookie dough can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking.
Store leftover cookie in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 15 seconds for that fresh-from-the-oven warmth.
