fudge and white choc cookies

So as you know i made cookies thursday night in preparation for our friends coming round on fri evening. Unfortunatly my husband took a liking to them, so they went down quickly! I had to make some more. This time i changed the berries for fudge!


Ingredients

    * 1 x 100g bar good quality white chocolate
    * 125g unsalted butter, very soft
    * 125g dark brown sugar
    * 1 large free range egg
    * 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
    * 150g plain flour
    * 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    * a good pinch of salt
    * 50g fudge pieces
    * 2 baking trays lined with non-stick
    * baking parchment

oven pre-heated to 170/180 degrees

1. Break up or chop the chocolate and fudge into pieces about the size of your little finger nail. Set aside until needed. Put the soft butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, flour, baking powder and salt into the bowl and beat until thoroughly combined, scraping down the bowl once or twice. Stir in the chocolate pieces and the fudge.
2. Take a heaped teaspoon of the mixture and put it onto the prepared tray, using another teaspoon to push the mixture off the spoon and into a rough mound. Repeat with the rest of the mixture, spacing the mounds well apart to allow for spreading.
3. Bake in the heated oven for about 15 minutes until a light golden brown. Remove the trays from the oven, leave to cool for a minute then carefully transfer the cookies to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
4. Store in an airtight container and eat within 4 days or freeze for up to a month.
