Preheat oven to 175°C.
In a large bowl, combine melted salted butter, brown sugar, and castor sugar. Mix well.
Add the egg and vanilla essence, and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the AEON Top Valu wheat flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips and AEON TopValu Oat Cluster Mix.
Using an ice cream scoop, portion out the cookie dough and place the scoops on the prepared tray, spacing them apart.
If you’re not baking immediately, freeze the scooped dough for later use.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
For extra chewy cookies, slightly underbake them.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their softness.
You can substitute different types of chocolate chips or nuts for the dark chocolate chips.
Can I use unsalted butter instead of salted butter?
Yes, you can use unsalted butter. Just add a pinch of salt to the dough to balance the sweetness.
Can I use a different type of flour?
While wheat flour is recommended for the best texture, you can experiment with other flours like all-purpose flour. Keep in mind that it might slightly affect the texture.
How do I store these cookies?
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days to maintain their softness.
Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Yes, you can freeze the cookie dough. Form the dough into balls, place them on a baking sheet, and freeze until solid. Then, transfer them to a freezer bag. When ready to bake, bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
What can I substitute for vanilla essence?
If you don't have vanilla essence, you can use almond extract or maple syrup for a slightly different flavour profile.
