160gmuscovado sugar

or dark brown sugar

1egg

70gpumpkin butter

I use this Half Baked Harvest recipe

2 tspvanilla bean paste

or vanilla extract

1 tspchai spice

I use this minimalist baker recipe

½ tspsea salt

plus extra for the top

½ tspbicarbonate of soda

285gplain flour

200gdark chocolate

good quality, broken into chunks, 65-80% cocoa is best

Instructions

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 175c

Step 2

Brown half the butter in a saucepan and set aside to cool. You can pop it in the freezer for a few minutes

Step 3

Meanwhile, whip the remaining butter, white sugar and brown sugars in a mixer until light and fluffy

Step 4

Add the egg & pumpkin butter and continue mixing

Step 5

Add the remaining ingredients (apart from the chocolate & the chai sugar mix) and mix on high until thoroughly combined

Step 6

Finally add the chocolate and mix one more time

Step 7

Roll the mixture into golf balls and flatten them slightly. Dip in the chai sugar and lay on a baking sheet. Space them well as they spread when cooking.

Step 8

Cook for 8 minutes.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and give the tray a sharp tap on the side to allow the cookies to settle and spread. Sprinkle with a little salt.

Step 10

Return to the oven for a further 2 minutes then remove. The edges should be just firm but the middle will look soft still. Don’t be tempted to put them in for much longer or you will ruin the lovely gooey texture!

Step 11

Leave to cool on the baking tray for a few minutes where they will firm up. Then enjoy!
