Too many people over cook their bikkies. Cook them until they are the right colour, only. That way they won't be hard.

I never tried Ma Higgins cookies, but I was taught to used strong bread flour if you want chewy cookies.

I'm trying a recipe this week for choc chip, cranberry and pumpkin seed cookies and that also has rolled oats in it, I have high hopes for it. Sounds great.

I just have to say, we made the chewy choc chip cookies recipe last night and everyone stuffed their faces on them and so another batch had to be made tonight lol. They are the schizzle!
I have so far today had two friends on facebook ask me for the recipe after I raved on about them and one tried them this morning, so they are going down a treat here.

2 cups all purpose flour, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, 170g (3/4 cup) unsalted butter, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 egg, 1 tsp baking soda, 2 tsp vanilla extract, 2 tsp cornflour/cornstarch and chocolate chips as desired.
1. Preheat oven to 180'C (350'F)
2. Beat together butter, brown sugar and white sugar.
3. Add egg and vanilla and continue beating until all combined.
4. Add flour, salt, baking soda, cornflour (cornstarch), chocolate chips and stir to mix.
5. Place spoonfuls onto greased/lined baking tray. Flatten to desired thickness and bake for approx 10 minutes until just brown around the edges. (Important: do not allow cookies to brown in the centre or they will be hard and crunchy.)
6. Allow cookies to sit on the baking tray just until they can be lifted onto a wire rack without breaking (approx 3 mins). Allow to cool on wire rack.
Enjoy!
