Chapter I
The Recipe
- Butter is creamed with brown and icing sugar until light and pale.
- Whole milk and vanilla are beaten in until smooth and glossy — no egg; the milk keeps the dough soft and chewy.
- Sifted flour, cornflour, soda, baking powder, and salt are folded to a soft dough.
- Hand-cut chocolate chunks are folded in so each cookie carries deep melting pools.
- Dough is scooped into thick jumbo mounds, chilled, then baked hot for a soft centre.
- Pulled while the centre is still soft — the chunks keep melting as they cool.

Chapter III
Why it tastes familiar
- Completely eggless — milk and cornflour replace the egg, so it is safe for egg-free diets
- Hand-cut dark-chocolate chunks, not compound coating
- Real cultured butter, not bakery shortening
- No artificial flavour, no high-fructose corn syrup
- Best eaten warm so the chunks are still molten
Care & Pairing
How to keep it
- Storage
- Keep airtight, away from direct sun and heat.
- Shelf Life
- Best enjoyed fresh; check the pack note on arrival.

Eggless throughout — chocolate is hand-cut and portioned in dedicated bowls so the chunks stay clean. Trays are sanitised between batches; finished cookies are handled with gloves.
