Ingredients

• 140 g golden caster sugar
• 40 g chopped almonds
• 110 g dark chocolate chunks
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 200 g plain flour
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 20 g cocoa powder
• 60 g butter, melted
• 70 g nut butter of choice
• 100 g golden syrup
• 3 tbsp water

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 180C | gas mark 4. Line a baking sheet with baking paper and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the golden caster sugar, almond pieces, chocolate chunks and salt. Sieve in the cocoa powder, flour and soda.
• In a separate bowl, combine the nut butter, butter and golden syrup. Once combined, add it to the flour mixture. Mix using a wooden spoon and bring the dough together using your hands.
• Divide the dough into 8 golf sized balls, flatten slightly and place on the baking tray.
• Bake in the middle of the oven for 8-10 minutes. The edges of the cookies should feel firm but the centre will be still quite soft. Leave to cool for 15 minutes.
