Two-in-One Chocolate Chip Cookies
This is a versatile recipe that has been an absolute hit with everyone. My hubby loves the biscuits with the plain chocolate chips whilst I love the chocolate cookies with the 'energy mix'. The great thing is that you get two varieties of cookies from one easy recipe. A sure hit with everyone!

- Preheat oven to 170 C / Gas 3.
- Cream butter, dark brown soft sugar and caster sugar until light and fluffy. Add in vanilla and eggs. Stir in the flour.
- Split dough into 2 lots.
- Version 1: Add in plain chocolate chips. Mix well.
- Version 2: Add in cocoa and 'energy mix'. Mix well.
- Roll teaspoonfuls of mixture into balls and place onto a greased baking tray. Using a fork, flatten the cookies, leaving approximately 1cm between each flattened cookie as it does spread a little. Note that the thinner you press it the crispier it'll be and the shorter the baking time.
- Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or until baked. Leave on tray to cool for about 2 to 3 minutes before removing and putting onto cooling racks to cool completely.

I love this recipe but I make the whole mix with the coco and the energy mix. Dead easy to make and tastes really rich. - 13 Nov 2009 (Review from Allrecipes AU | NZ)
