Wheat free White chocolate chip cookies

makes approx 25

115 g low-fat spread, margarine or butter
50 g sugar, granulated
75 g brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten
½ tsp vanilla extract
165 g rice flour
2 tbsp cocoa powder, unsweetened
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp baking powder
150 g white chocolate, cut into chunks or chocolate chips (check for nut contamination if 'nut free' required)

preheat oven: 180°C, fan 160°C, 350°F, Gas 4

1. Line baking sheets with non-stick baking paper.
2. Put fat and both sugars into a large mixing bowl and cream together, beating well until smooth.
3. Slowly beat in the egg and vanilla extract. The mix may start to curdle a bit but this will disappear when the dry ingredients are added.
4. Add the sifted flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and baking powder to the mix and then stir well to fully combine all of the ingredients. Finally add the chocolate chips and stir in gently.
5. Place generous teaspoonfuls of mixture onto the prepared baking trays. Ensure that the mixture is spaced out well as the cookies will spread during baking.
6. Bake for 12 - 14 minutes, until firm to the touch.
7. Remove cookies from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes then transfer to a wire baking rack to fully cool before storing in an airtight container.

These cookies can be eaten slightly warm or cold. They keep well for 2 - 3 days in an airtight container.
