Melting chocolate cookies recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas Mark 3 and grease and line a baking sheet or two.

Step 2

Melt half the chocolate in a glass bowl over a pan of simmering water. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.

Step 3

Whisk the butter and Tate & Lyle Light Soft Brown Sugar together until fluffy, then whisk in the egg, followed by the melted chocolate.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, salt and cocoa powder, then whisk these dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture.

Step 5

Add the remaining chopped chocolate and roll into 16 balls with your hands.

Step 6

Place on the prepared baking sheets making sure you allow plenty of room for them to spread. Flatten the tops of the cookies with the back of a wooden spoon.

Step 7

Bake in the oven for 12 minutes and let cool before serving with a cold glass of milk.

TOP TIP

These cookies go great with a cold glass of milk or warm Hot Chocolate.

Perfect for cosying up on chilly days, our creamy caramel latte is really easy to make, with a splash of our Barista Collection caramel syrup. Here’s how…

120ml Semi-skimmed milk
100ml Freshly brewed coffee
15ml Tate & Lyle caramel coffee syrup
5ml Tate & Lyle demerara sugar (optional)

Heat the milk and syrup in a small pan till frothy.
Turn down the heat, stirring in the coffee (and sugar if you like).
Pour and enjoy.

☕️ Our syrups are all vegan, so if you switch up your milk, your latte can be too.

The perfect Valentine’s cocktail? It’s got to be a smooth, creamy hazelnut espresso martini – and just for you, we’ve put together our best recipe.

We’ve chosen slow-roasted Mayan Gold coffee from @cafedirect because its caramel flavours pair perfectly with our Barista Collection hazelnut syrup.

Just pour everything over ice in a cocktail shaker, shake it up and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Finish with a few whole roasted coffee beans. Happy Valentine’s ❤️

45ml Vodka
30ml Hot Cafédirect Mayan Gold coffee
15ml Espresso coffee liqueur
7.5ml Hazelnut liqueur
7.5ml Tate & Lyle hazelnut syrup

Get your Tate & Lyle hazelnut syrup at the link in @tateandlylesugars’ bio.

Please drink responsibly.

Research shows that in Central American countries, like Belize where most of our Fairtrade sugar is grown, women typically earn a third less than men, and less than half of women are part of the workforce (compared to 78% in the UK). 

Since 2008, Tate & Lyle's Fairtrade licensed sales in the UK have contributed an estimated £32 million in Fairtrade Premium. Initiatives funded by the brand’s Fairtrade Premium have included a programme focused on female empowerment by The Progressive Sugarcane Producers Association.
