A while back I was lucky enough to be invited to become a member of the Happy Egg co taste 100 blogger network.
I was sent this cute little box with a with a happy egg cookie and a voucher for 12 eggs and I was later emailed to ask if I would be interested in baking their pecan and chocolate honeycomb cookie!
The recipe looked simple enough so I thought why not - they are super delicious!
Makes: About 18 cookies
Cooking time: About 12 minutes
Oven temperature: 180°C, 350°F, Gas mark 4
INGREDIENTS:
125g (4.5oz) Butter, softened
200g (7oz) Soft light brown sugar
3 the happy egg co. eggs
150g (5oz) Plain flour
2.5ml (½tsp) Baking powder
50g (2oz) Plain chocolate, cut into chunks
75g (3oz) Pecan nuts, roughly broken
2 Honeycomb chocolate bars eg crunchie bars – roughly chopped
METHOD:
1. In a large bowl mix together butter, sugar, eggs, flour and baking powder. Add the chopped chocolate, pecans and honeycomb, mix until thoroughly combined. Cover with clingfilm and chill for 30 – 60 minutes until firm.
2. Preheat the oven to 180°C, 350°F, Gas mark 4. Line 4 baking trays with non-stick baking parchment.
3. Place a dessertspoon of the cookie mixture on to the baking trays, leaving plenty of space between each biscuit as they will spread – cook about 4 cookies per tray. (Put the mixture back in the fridge between each baking batch)
4. Bake for about 12 minutes until just starting to brown on the edges – the cookies are slightly crunchy on the edges & soft & spongy in the middle!
5. Remove from the oven and carefully while still warm - push extra pieces of pecan nut and honeycomb into each biscuit.
6. Let the cookies cool on the trays. When cool remove from tray & eat – store in an air tight cookie jar.
