Choc Chip Biscuits!

At our blog get together last week, the topic of biscuits came up (not sure how or by whom). I had a couple of requests for my choc chip biscuits recipe. I thought others may like to have the recipe too, so here it is.

  

Christine’s Choc Chip Biscuits

1 cup sugar

125g butter

1 egg, beaten

1-2 tbs coffee and chicory essence (optional)

¾ cup dark choc chips

1¾ cup SR flour

Cream butter and sugar. Add egg and coffee essence. Mix. Add choc chips. Mix. Add flour and mix together.

Roll into walnut size balls and place on oven tray.

Bake in moderate oven (180⁰C) about 18 minutes or until golden brown. Loosen biscuits while warm, cool on trays. 

** The Coffee and Chicory Essence gives a lovely flavour and colour to the biscuits. It doesn't have an over-powering flavour of coffee. 

Variation - Choc Choc Chip Biscuits

  

Replace dark choc chips with white choc chips.

Add ¼ cup cocoa with flour.
