We love chocolate and baking in our house. This simple chocolate chip cookie recipe is cheap, easy and doesn’t require any over the top ingredients.

I may earn a small commission at no cost to you from some of the links found on this blog. This does not influence my opinion or recommendations in any way.

Ingredients:

• 75g table spread (margarine)
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• 1/2 cup soft brown sugar
• 1 1/2 cups gluten free flour
• 1 eggs
• chocolate chips
• chopped nuts (optional)

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 180*C and line the bottom of a flat baking tray with baking paper.
2. In a medium size pot place the margarine, vanilla essence and sugar and cook on a very low heat until the margarine is completely melted and remove from the heat.
3. Once the margarine mixture has cooled slightly add the remaining ingredients and mix until combined.
4. Portion the cookies out with a dessert spoon and roll into balls, lay 12 out on your tray at a time
5. bake in the oven for 10min. This time may vary depending on your oven, they should be just slightly brown on top..
6. Allow to cool on the tray before moving onto a wire rack. They will be very soft at first but will firm up as they cool.
7. Enjoy.
