🍰 Desserts

Chocolate and orange, the pairing that divides opinion and wins anyway. Crisp at the edges, chewy in the middle, with every bite loaded. Serve with cold milk, coffee, or packed into lunchboxes.

Prep 20 min Cook 12 min Serves 15 Medium

Ingredients

  • Butter3 tbsp
  • Salta pinch
  • Eggs1
  • Sugar3/4 cup
  • Baking Powder1/2 tsp
  • Vanilla Extract1 tsp
  • Dark Chocolate1 cup, chopped
  • Brown Sugar1/2 cup
  • Orange Zest1 tbsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Set the oven to 175 C / 350 F and line your trays so nothing sticks.

  2. 2

    Sift the dry ingredients — flour, dark chocolate, leavener — into a bowl and whisk briefly.

  3. 3

    Cream butter with both sugars until fluffy, beat in the egg, then fold in the flour mixture.

  4. 4

    Fold in the orange zest last so the streaks and chunks stay distinct.

  5. 5

    Chill the dough twenty minutes, scoop, and bake until the edges are golden and centres soft.

Chef's tip

With butter-based batters, cream until the mixture actually lightens in colour; that trapped air is your rise.
