How to Make Squishy Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 190°C (170°C fan/375°F).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, caster sugar, and custard powder. Add cinnamon if desired.
  3. Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients. Use your clean hands to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.
  4. Create a well in the center of the dough. Add the vanilla extract and gradually mix it into the dough, adding more if needed to achieve a soft, pliable consistency.
  5. Lightly grease a baking sheet with butter or line it with parchment paper.
  6. Coarsely chop the dark chocolate into approximately 0.5cm squared pieces.
  7. Gently fold the chocolate pieces into the cookie dough using a spoon, being careful not to overmix and melt the chocolate.
  8. Roll the dough into 18 small balls (approximately 25g each).
  9. Place the cookie balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are still soft and slightly underbaked for that signature 'squishy' texture.
  11. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your deliciously squishy cookies!
