1. To make the cookie dough mix, combine the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. (You can mix with a spoon by hand, in a food processor or with an electric whisk)
2. Then mix in the eggs until combined.
3. Sift the flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda into the mix, then combine again to form a dough-like mixture. The mixture should begin to look and feel like cookie dough! You’re almost there…
4. Gently fold in the dark and white chocolate chips into the dough.
5. Split into individual portions into your skillet or cast-iron dishes (or one big sharing one if you prefer!) and then bake in the oven at 180C until golden.
6. Be careful when removing from the oven! Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, toffee sauce and your favourite chocolate treats.
