chewy choc chip biscuits

 I made these for the kids this afternoon because I know they (we!) love chocolate buttons- YUM

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
50g butter
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup chocolate chocolate buttons

DIRECTIONS:
Heat oven to 180°C.
Combine flour, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Combine butter, sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping the bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla. Continue beating, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Reduce speed to low. Beat, gradually adding flour mixture, until well mixed. Stir in chocolate chunks.
Shape dough into golf ball size portions, place them 4cm apart, onto baking paper, press them lightly. Bake for 10 to 14 minutes or until light golden brown. (Do not overbake.) Let stand 1 to 2 minutes.
