Step 1

Preheat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas mark 5.

Step 2

Put the butter into a mixing bowl and add the sugar and a good pinch of salt. Beat together until pale and fluffy. Add the egg and mix together. Add the peanut butter and mix until smooth.

Step 3

Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl and mix together well. It should be claggy and thick.

Step 4

Add the chocolate and mix well. Transfer to a 23cm diameter, ovenproof frying pan. Flatten out into a huge cookie. It’s easiest to do this with clean hands.

Step 5

Bake for 18 minutes until firm at the sides and still gooey in the middle. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for 10 minutes before serving
