Cookie recipe
Hello! Does anyone have a good cookie recipe for lovely, gooey cookies? I absolutely love the ones from Subway so I'm thinking that kind of thing, but whenever I've tried making them they always go dead hard even if I adjust the cooking time, add more butter...always just like little disks.

I always use this one. Made it with smarties, chocolate chips, Reeses peanut butter chips, they are always gooey - I think it's the banging the tray that does it! It's a Jo Wheatley recipe - she won the Bake Off, maybe the second series?
100g unsalted butter, softened 100g light soft brown sugar 50g caster sugar 1 large eggs, beaten 1 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste 200g plain flour 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda A pinch of sea salt 180g smarties (I freeze mine for at least 2 hours before baking) You will also need 2-3 baking sheets lined with baking parchment. Preheat the oven to 170ºC/325ºF/gas mark 3 Cream the butter and sugar together in a free-standing machine until pale, light and fluffy. If you don’t have a free-standing machine you can use a hand-held electric whisk. Gradually add the beaten eggs, mixing well between each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, add the vanilla extract and mix again. Sift the flour, baking powder, bicarb and salt into the bowl and mix until well combined, fold in 3/4 of the frozen smarties into the cookie dough. Use either a small ice-cream scoop or 2 teaspoons to scoop the dough into even sized mounds. Place 6-8 cookies on each baking sheet, allowing plenty of space between each cookie as they will spread during cooking. Bake the cookies in batches on the middle shelf of the preheated oven for about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and sharply bang the baking tray on the work-surface to deflate the cookies and then stud with the remaining smarties, return to the oven for a further 5-7 minutes until pale golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 15 minutes before transferring to wire racks until cold. |

Grab a copy of the hummingbird cake days book there's a few cookies in there. They are always soft cookies and really tasty. The books often on offer for £5.
