This recipe has been adapted from the double chocolate pretzel cookie recipe found in In The Mix 2 and was contributed by Kylie Millar a Masterchef contestant.
Serves: 24-30
What you'll need
  • 200g raw sugar
  • 225g unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 100g brown sugar
  • 100g glucose syrup
  • 80g Nestle dark chocolate melts
  • 80g Nestle dark choc bits
  • 1 egg
  • 80g cocoa
  • 300g gluten free plain flour (I use White wings or Woolworths Macro but you could use regular wheat flour if you like)
  • bag of pretzels (original) leave off the pretzels for gluten free option
  • teaspoon of salt or a few grinds of the salt grinder
Instructions
  1. Place caster sugar in your thermomix bowl and process for 10 seconds on speed 9.
  2. Add in the roughly chopped butter, brown sugar, glucose syrup and the chocolate melts (the big round ones) and process for 20 seconds on speed 5. Scrape down bowl.
  3. Add in the egg and process 10 seconds speed 4.
  4. Add in flour, cocoa and salt, process on closed lid setting, knead (the little wheat button) for about 40 seconds to 1 minute. The recipe in the book called for a 2 minutes on speed 5 but my dough was going nowhere.
  5. Add in choc chips and process again on the same setting for about 40 seconds to 1 minute until the choc chips are distributed throughout. I like to give it a scrape down half way.
  6. Bake in a preheated 180 degrees oven for 15 minutes. I got 3 trays of these babies out of the oven.
