125g Tararua Butter
½ cup Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar (lightly packed)
½ cup Chelsea Caster Sugar
½ tsp vanilla essence
1 egg
1¾ cups Edmonds Self Raising Flour
½ tsp salt
½ cup chocolate chunks or chips
Preheat oven to 180°C conventional or 160ºC fan forced and grease or line two baking trays with baking paper.
Beat Tararua Butter, Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar, Chelsea Caster Sugar and vanilla until pale and creamy, add egg and beat until mixed.
Sift in Edmonds Self Raising Flour and salt, mix until combined before stirring in the chocolate chunks or chips.
Roll heaped teaspoon sized balls of mixture and place on tray, press down lightly with a floured fork. Bake for approx. 12 minutes.
Substitute chocolate with Smarties, M&Ms or chopped nuts.
Needs less caster sugar! I think its good though, i thought i didn't have caster, then i found it, on the second one i used caster, it changed the dough! heaps! havent finished yet
The only problem with these cookies is that you can’t stop eating them!These cookies are fun, easy and tasty! Really really really love it!
Made these with the kids used 1 cup of chocolate that was the only change we made. These were delicious and perfect first time round! Didn’t last long.
Love these cookies. Simple and quick but am wondering about making them even faster. Am I able to mix the dry ingredients in advance and just add the eggs, butter and vanilla at time of cooking?
CHELSEA SUGAR: Hi there, we don't think this will work unfortunately, as you need to cream the butter with the sugar before adding the other ingredients. The cookie dough does freeze well though. Portion out balls of dough and flatten a little before freezing. You can then either bake them from frozen (increase cooking time by a couple of minutes), or defrost before baking.
this is my favourite recipe I love this since I first used it I always use this recipe love love it my husband loves it to.
Really like the taste and consistency of these biscuits. I found the cooking time wasn't long enough though. I was closer to 16 - 18 minutes
I make these every Christmas and use a whole block of Whittakers milk chocolate and vanilla bean paste - so good!
I found that the batter was sticky. Or I just did something wrong. When they were put in the oven, it started to expand.
Yummy, quick and easy. Used 1/4 cup golden castor sugar & 1/4 cup coconut sugar. Plenty sweet enough.
Perfect if you only have self raising flour. These were a hit at my daughters camp. Easy recipe to follow as well. Will definitely make these again.
Perfectly crisp on the outside, chewy on the inside, with gooey choc chunks to give that 110%. Love it.
very yum!!! I'm 12 and I make these all the time but instead of 1/2 cup of both sugars i only use 1/4 of both sugars. Definitely make these tho!
OMG SOOOOO DELICIOUS BAKED THEM ANDARE SO SOFT AND CHEWY 10/10 FOR BAKING AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These biscuits were very nice and so was the consistency. Next time I would not use Self Raising Flour but Plain Flour and Baking Powder. I hate the S.R. Flour taste and furry feeling in your mouth!
amazing cookies! they are great with a hot chocolate on a cold night and you can never get enough of them! 10/10 would bake again
This is my go-to recipe for choc chip cookies for my kids. It doesn’t contain condensed milk like a lot of other recipes and I reduce the sugars to 1/4 cup each and it’s more than sweet enough and the kids love them :-)
I CANT STOP EATING THESE, IT IS AN URGE NOW, PLEASE, TELL MY FAMILY I LOVE THEM, FOR I HAVE TAKEN OUT MY CHILDS COLLEGE FUND FOR THESE COOKIES. GOD, I CANT STOP.
This is really good!! Can't stop eating. I used salted butter and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. It's sweet and salty at the same time. Perfect balance
Really nice, simple recipe. Turned out yummy. Makes about 12 medium sized cookies. I used 3/4 cup sugar (not 1 cup) and it was sweet enough. I also grated a bar of Lindt dark chocolate instead of chips and the result was very rustic and delicious.
WOW!! The cookies were delicious love them a lot and I am a very picky eater. Instead of 12 mins I did 15 and I also used raw caster sugar but still turned out amazing. THANKS
Love these biscuits. I toast long strands of coconut and walnuts and throw them in too. Really yummy and just gives the cookies and extra texture. Also great with coconut or caramilk chocolate
Are these biscuits crunchy or chewy? I'm looking for a recipe that turns out crunchy.
CHELSEA SUGAR: Hi Anne, these biscuits are crisp on the edges and a little bit soft in the centre. You could bake them for an extra couple of minutes for more crunch.
I haven’t even tasted it yet and I know it will be delish!
The recipe was simple and easy to follow. It’s in the oven right now. I didn’t have any brown sugar so I used white sugar instead. Fingers crossed.
Can you substitute the butter for oil in this recipe? I'm dairy free.
Chelsea Sugar:
Yes, you can use oil instead of butter, however, the texture and taste will be different to what the recipe is intended to create.
Great biscuit reciepe with simple ingredients. My batch looked great and didn't spread all over the tray like some recipes, however, it did taste really salty. I used salted butter and dark chocolate. I will make again but reduce the salt a fraction. My family didn't think these were too sweet.
Made these for my birthday. They turned out great. Just made another batch and added almond choc and caramel chews. Can't wait to eat them - don't leave them in the oven too long.
I made these today they were fantastic nice and soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. Perfect.
I didn’t have any brown sugar so used raw sugar. I used about a tablespoon less than the recipe said. Result- lovely biscuits. I will use this recipe again.
Great recipe - easy to follow and hard to muck-up!
I substituted chocolate for frozen raspberries and half a block of Whittaker's White Chocolate (chopped up). Took a little longer to cook (approx. 20 mins).
Amazing raspberry & white chocolate cookies!
My 7 year old can confidently make these on her own and my class at school love making them, l do put less sugar than stated. I have also done them with raisins and cinnamon instead of chocolate.
if im correct, these are THE cookies. I used to make the best cookies, but one day I made them and they stopped being giant, golden brown beauties. For SO long, maybe even a year, my cookies continued this way. Until one day I tried this recipe and I did not expect what happened next. I took my cookies out of the oven and they looked the same as they did before!! These were the same old cookies. If i’m correct this is the recipe. I’m going to try it now and if it doesn’t turn out good I’m changing my rating to one star. thank you
I didn't have any soft brown sugar, so I used 1/2 muscavado 1/2 golden caster sugar, and a little less than 1cup total. they turned out delicious. I also melted the butter, rather than just softening, it didn't seem to matter. chopped up some dark Ghana chocolate for the chips...would definitely recommend the muscavado, dark caramel tones, the kids (2 and 4yrs old) are loving it....
Doubled the recipe, felt it was way too much butter to flour so just went all over try. Maybe it was my fault
I wish that it would tell me how many cookies this recipe makes, but other than that it is a great recipe and I would recommend.
CHELSEA: hi, it makes 30 biscuits.
Turned out great the only thing I did differently was put less sugar in. Also on my second try instead of chocolate chips I used sultanas and raisins but used the normal sugar amount and was great again! Overall it is a nice, easy recipe.
Very yummy! They are quite sweet, but that means you feel satisfied after eating one or two, so they last longer! I had to bake mine almost 20 min for slightly chewy with crisp ends, as I prefer them.
Easy and delicious
Awesome! These are the bomb me and my little brother made them they taste awsome.
I love this recipe its so yummy and its really easy to do i give this a 5 start its so easy to do and it only takes about 5 minute to do bye the way im a kid and I can cook.
These are so easy & came out very well. I sprinkled a little fine rock salt on the top & verdict was it made them extra delicious.
They’re so good!
I don’t have any self raising flour so I added a bit of baking powder (maybe a little too much, I like my cookies nice and fat) and they were amazing!!

Excellent. So easy so tasty. I can't even bake lol but they turned out awesome.
Great recipe. If don't cook too long and they are chewy. My fan bake oven cooks fast. They lasted two day and that is two of us plus one lot of visitors!
Amazing - most popular recipe with my teenage son and his friends, only problem now is they beg me to make them everytime they come round :)
I think their could be less brown sugar! All I could really taste was the brown sugar! But all though it was good!
Amazing cookies! I made 40 ! I think those people who only made 15 cookies made ones biggers than a HEAPED TEASPOON! So delicious, maybe less choc chips ?!
Great recipe. Followed it step by step and turned out perfectly. Tastes awesome, nice texture and easy to make. Thank you.. Happy 2018!
I made these in cupcake wrappers, and put a chocolate chunk in the middle of each cookie... so yummy! Fun for the kids, too.
Nice & easy & quick to make made heaps, wasn't sure if it really did say a tsp for size of the cookies so did some ½ tbsp & some tbsp & the bigger ones were too big & I/2 tbsp were just the right size.
It was pretty average very dry and overall not great. It took 20 mins in the oven not 15 and made 15 cookies not 30
Lovely biscuits gave them a go because of the good reviews love them !!!!!!!!
AMAZING!!!!
Really has that crunchy outside and soft inside
(but if you're looking for more of a chewy cookie this might be a better recipe to try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCzVqaFMlIw).
Absolutely delicious and i had lots of fun making this so thank you :)
Most delicious COOKIES EVER! I made these for me and my family today and they were gone by the blink of an eye.
These cookies were a special sweet treat for us. They smelled delicious cooking in the oven. They were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They warmed our tummies up!
I looooooooooooooooove this recipe!!!!
It is absolutely amazing!!
I cannot believe the reviews people have given this about this, it is incredible!!!
Too much sugar???!!!
Here's a tip, if you think it is too sugary just reduce the amount of sugar you use.
But seriously, this is the best recipe ever!!!!
Amazing! My mum and I have made this recipe a million times. I have seen the other reviews; too sugary? Seriously, the more sugary the better :) my family loves them, my mum has a trick. If your egg is small, she just adds a dash of milk and that makes up for it! I'd recommend this to anyone I meet. Perfect for a hungry family at supper :)
Oh my gosh!!!!
Best cookie recipe ever!!!
12 years old inexperienced baker. I decided to share some with my family, they wanted more! I definitely recommend this recipe anyone else who is willing to try out some baking. This is extremely simple and satisfying!
Amazing and easy recipe. I am nine，but I can still Bake it so easily its unbelievable. Just add 3/4 The Sugar and it will be fine. Its a Delicious and sweet snack For ALL ages. Enjoy!!!
I thought this was an excellent recipe. No need for that pesky addition of sweetened condensed milk. I flattened my cookies a little bit so they spread nicely and were a little thinner and crunchy. Put one in my kids lunchbox and he came back and told me that his friend wants those for his birthday pressie.
so beautiful, the taste is so yum. i travelled to the great land of haoi to gather rare ingredients.
I will never let my kids eat these again way too much sugar if you want to live a beautiful life then don't eat these :(
These were so good, I had my 12th birthday party treat at hockey and every asked for the recipe, though I can't blame them. They feed 36 people amazing. Thank you so much, the only thing you can work on is the amount of sugar, it was awful, my teeth will come out soon if you don't fix this problem
It was really good but I recommend you to put half sugar if you like slightly less sweet cookies! Thanks for the recipe
mm yummy they are so good
Omg! Im 11 Yrs old and I was able to make this alone. (I have baked before) It was very fun and even though I wasn't too sure. I still made em and couldn't wait to eat another one! Definitely good for lunches or just snacks! Or eat the whole batch, haha. (I didn't really!)
I am 11 year old,
I made these all by myself with a little bit of help with cleaning up from mum, hehe, I can't wait to make them again, they were such a yummy treat in my lunch box!
Great recipe, I make these with my 4 yr old son super easy and fun he can follow along and help with every step. We half the sugar (1/4c caster & 1/4c brown) and they still taste fantastic. We also sometimes swap choc chips for sultanas.
Absolutely beautiful cookie recipe! Super easy and quick. I normally bake Edmonds choc chip cookies so I thought I'd try this. Glad I did! Edmonds uses condensed milk and I never have it in the cupboard when I need it. This Chelsea recipe is just basic pantry staples and super tasty! Thank you.
Very easy to make taste good I also made some with sultanas in them when I ran out of chocolate chip pieces.
It was so easy to make have all the ingredients in the pantry and most of all my hubby love ❤️ the biscuits
I am on a diet can you suggest and biscuits i can make with out up seting my diet.

As a food and nutrition teacher I am alarmed that you are promoting a recipe that is so high in sugar as a suitable for school lunches.
Absolute favourite recipe. Make these chocolate chip biscuits all the time.
I love this chocolate chip biscuit recipe and so do my family. So yummy and easy to make. I have tried all sorts of chocolates additions, including mini m&m's, which were a huge hit! Thank you for such a great recipe!
Finally, a delicious recipe where I can make big biscuits- and a lot of them!
Have made 3 batches of these...3 days in a row!!
They're a definite favourite in my household. My fussy 17 month old enjoys these, so that's saying something!
I have just made these Chocolate Chip biscuits, I did double the recipe this made 32 large chewy biscuits and I did press the biscuits with a fork half way through the cooking time.
Excellent recipe, highly recommend.
THEY ARE AMAZING!!!!!! it worked and it took me only 10 min to make them, a fantastic chocolate chip biscuit recipe.
What can I use instead of brown sugar as I've run out of brown sugar please.
CHELSEA: Hi there, you could replace the brown sugar with raw sugar. Alternatively, use caster sugar instead of the brown sugar and add 1/2 tablespoon molasses. You can also just use caster sugar, but might find the biscuits are crisper and don't have quite as much flavour.
These chocolate chip biscuits were delicious
Such an amazing chocolate chip biscuit recipe. they expand so much so i have to use 3 trays to cook them on so they don't touch each other but that's awesome as this recipe makes so much and they're so big !!!
These chocolate chip cookies are so irresistible my grandchildren couldn't keep their hands off. Definitely would use this recipe again.
Easy delishness. Crispy edges with chewy centre. Yummo, will probably never use another chocolate chip biscuit recipe again.
The guys loved these chocolate chip bikkies. Will be making again
Will it work with just raw sugar?I don't have caster sugar or brown sugar.
CHELSEA: Raw sugar should work fine - we recommend giving it a whizz in the food processor first though, to make the crystal sizes a bit smaller.
we just love this chocolate chip biscuit recipe, delicious !!
Fantastic recipe. My family are addicted to them. Probably made about 15 batches in the last six months lol.
easy and yum for kids and lunches
It is so good and easy to make i'm going to make it again for shore and my family just loved it but most of all the dog because the dog jumped up and ate some
Just delicious. Have made so many batches of these biscuits now. Family just cant get enough of them.
yummmmmmmmmmmmmy
These cookies are yummy.
Beautiful minus the salt. I like to add peanut butter.
Easy to use recipe. Quick to make delicious cookies. I usually add crasins (dried cranberries) to the mix and it's perfect to offset the dark chocolate. I use this recipe all the time.
Delicious recipe!!!!!!
I love these!!!
Great biscuits their truly delicious.
very nice thanks chelsea
beautiful! so quick and easy too
delicious. best ever. batter can be frozen in little balls if you don't want to cook the whole batch. just heat up oven and pop the frozen cookie dough in for 15 mins
Brilliant! Loved by everyone who eats them... and they don't last very long at all!
beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my 2yr old loved these! I used half chocolate chips & half mini m&m's and they went down really well. Will definitely be making these again.
delicious - way better than my old recipe which was very crumbly ! LOVE IT and was awesome for my nearly 3yr old she loved helping
A big hit with my family
Yummy! Easy to make, batch turned out a bit sticky but I think that was more to do with my just turned three year old helping! She loved baking them and loved the end product even more.
Loved the Biscuits they were perfect !
Worked out perfectly - even though I subbed whole wheat flour (plus 1 tsp baking powder) for the self-raising flour :)
kids just love it especially with m&m's
Great and easy recipe! Didn't require a lot of time or ingredients :). My fussy partner liked them too!
Star plus plus.. This recipe makes the best ever biscuits.. I like to add a little orange zest. and they go down a treat with peanut m&m's :)) Thanks Chelsea..An absolute winner
Fantastic
taste just like the old hudsons chocolate hip biscuits
Turned out great! Very tasty.
Took these to a party and to school, never received so many compliments on one type of baking. Many have told me I must make them again, this one is definitely going in my recipe book!
the best choc chips ever
Delicious!! So popular with the family and so easy to make!
Loved my my household! and so quick and easy to make.
Great cookies, a real kit with the kids, before they were cooked and after.

Best recipe for this chocolate chippie biscuit I have ever tasted!
This recipe is amazing best choc chip biscuits I have had, I gave the recipe to a friend and even she and her partner thought the were yummy!!
The only change I made was to take the salt down to 1/4 teaspoon as I found 1/2 was a little much salt for me.
Yuuuuuum! That is all
Delicious, and makes tonnes using little spoonsful
Easy to make and makes quite a few too.We all loved them.Great recipe.
Awesome!! AND it only took ten minutes to make OMG!! A real winner with ALL my kids - Cheers

Really easy to make recipe. I made it with Spelt flour and it worked out great and they tasted yummy
Great easy recipe and makes good sized biscuits with a great taste. Great for baking for a school fair as you get a large quantity per batch. YUM!!!
Super easy! Super yum!!!
