Making the basic dough

The dough for these delicious cookies is quick and easy to make

• Combine the butter and sugars in a bowl and mix until smooth and light
• Beat in the two eggs until well combined
• Sift in both flours a bit at a time and mix thoroughly
• Finally add the 2 tablespoons of milk and mix

To create the marbled effect we now need to divide the dough in two and mix in the coco powder to half the mixture, making sure it is well combined.

Yes we will be needing three whole blocks!

Cut the blocks of chocolate up to about the size of half a square.

Make sure you keep the three different types of chocolate separate at this point!!!

Mix the dark and milk chocolate into the dough without the coco powder and the white chocolate into the dough with the coco powder.

GENTLY fold the two types of dough together this will create the marbled effect. It is important that you don't over-mix or you won't get a defined marble.

You can make your cookies any size you want, I find that these cookies look their best big!

Lay the cookie on a tray covered in baking paper and put them in your pre-heated oven.

Depending on their size they will take about 10 - 15 minutes to cook.

When they are removed from the oven they will be soft to the touch, this is ok, they harden when they cool!

Leave them on the baking tray for a moment to cool a bit before transferring them to a cooling rack.

These cookies will easily impress anyone who tries them and are best served with a nice glass of milk!
