Instructions: Cream the St Ivel Golden Churn and sugars together in a bowl until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla essence, then gradually beat in the egg.

Fold in the flour and salt, then fold in the chocolate chunks and hazelnuts, mixing well.

Place heaped teaspoonfuls of the mixture onto two lightly greased baking sheets. Bake in a preheated oven at 180C / 350F / gas mark 4 for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Cool slightly on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Variations:
Use almonds or pecan nuts in place of hazelnuts.

Use white or milk chocolate or a mixture of white chocolate and chopped glace cherries in place of the plain chocolate.
