Chunky Cookies

• Preheat the oven to 175c and prepare 2 baking trays lined with baking parchment.
• Cream together the butter and sugars for approx. 5 minutes with an electric whisk until creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla and whisk for 1 minute more. Sieve in the flour and bread soda and mix by hand until combined.
• At this stage you can add in the chocolate chips and stir in.
• Using a potato scoop, scoop 5 cookies mounds onto each large baking tray ensuring to leave room for them to spread a little. Do not press down the mounds, leave the scoops as is.
