Delicious triple chocolate Christmas pudding cookies with milk and dark chocolate chunks, a white chocolate coating, and a holly buttercream decoration!
Preheat your oven to 180ºC/160ºC fan and line two-four baking trays with parchment paper.
Mix together the unsalted butter and both sugars until light and fluffy and thoroughly combined!
Mix in the vanilla and the egg until thoroughly combined
Add in the cocoa powder, plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder and salt until a thick paste/cookie dough is formed.
Fold in the chocolate chips, and spoon the mixture onto the trays and make sure they are suitable spread out so they stay separate! I use a 5cm cookie scoop for this.
Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until spread out perfectly crinkly. A minute or so less will be gooey, a minute or two more will be beautiful Crunchy.
Once baked, remove from the oven and leave to cool fully.
Decoration
Once the cookies have cooled fully, melt the white chocolate into a small container that the cookies will fit into.
Dip each cookie into the melted white chocolate coating the front/back and lay onto new parchment lined trays.
Leave the chocolate to set at room temperature or do this in the fridge to speed up the process.
Make the holly decorations how you want - I used some leftover vanilla buttercream dyed green and some small red sprinkles!
