Lola’s Chocolate and Orange Cookies

Method

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC, line a baking sheet with baking paper.
• Mix the butter and sugar till fluffy and pale. Add the egg and mix well.
• Add the flour and bicarbonate soda and then mix in the chocolate chips and orange peel.
• Bring the mixture together into a ball, making sure all of the ingredients are incorporated evenly. If the mixture is too sticky add extra flour.
• Using a tablespoon, spoon the mixture on a baking paper and flatten them slightly.
• Bake the biscuits for about 10-12 minutes. For more soft texture, the centre should feel soft, for more crunch bake slightly longer.
