me and lola felt particularly productive this morning and whipped up a batch of chocolate chip shortbread. these are really, really delicious, quick and easy. it makes them perfect if you have unexpected guests as within about 15 minutes you can be serving freshly bakes cookies and they don't even generate a lot of washing up!basic shortbread recipe
makes about 20 small cookies
115g plain flour
115g butter
60g caster sugar + a little extra for sprinkling
75g 70% chocolate drops
preheat oven to 220c
1. rub all the ingredients, except the chocolate, together to form breadcrumbs
2. knead together to form a dough, add the chocolate and mix to distribute evenly throught the dough.
3. roll to form a sausage about 2" thick and cut into 1cm slices, or pick small clumps of dough and roll into a ball.
4. flatten the slices or balls slightly and place, nicely spaced out, on an ungreased baking tray.
5. bake for approx 7 mins (or until golden brown at the edge)
6. leave to cool on the tray.

I made them and they are so quick! Very delicious too but now I need to buy more butter for the morning. Have you seen the blackberry and chocolate mousse on Nami nami? Think we should give it a try! Could we add a cocoa beanie twist?
