Pecan And Chocolate Honeycomb Cookies

Pecan And Chocolate Honeycomb Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 125g (4.5oz) Butter, softened
  • 200g (7oz) Soft light brown sugar
  • 3 the happy egg co. eggs
  • 150g (5oz) Plain flour
  • 2.5ml (½tsp) Baking powder
  • 50g (2oz) Plain chocolate, cut into chunks
  • 75g (3oz) Pecan nuts, roughly broken
  • 2 Honeycomb chocolate bars e.g. crunchie bars - roughly chopped
  • Extra pecan nuts & honeycomb chocolate pieces for decorating

Method:

  1. In a large bowl mix together butter, sugar, eggs, flour and baking powder. Add the chopped chocolate, pecans and honeycomb, mix until thoroughly combined. Cover with cling film and chill for 30 - 60 minutes until firm.
  2. Preheat the oven to 180°C, 350°F, Gas mark 4. Line 4 baking trays with non-stick baking parchment.
  3. Place a dessertspoon of the cookie mixture on to the baking trays, leaving plenty of space between each biscuit as they will spread - cook about 4 cookies per tray. (Put the mixture back in the fridge between each baking batch)
  4. Bake for about 12 minutes until just starting to brown on the edges - the cookies are slightly crunchy on the edges & soft & spongy in the middle!
  5. Remove from the oven and carefully while still warm - push extra pieces of pecan nut and honeycomb into each biscuit.
  6. Let the cookies cool on the trays. When cool remove from tray & eat - store in an air tight cookie jar.
