125g (4 ½ oz) caster sugar
2tbsp golden syrup
125g (4oz) self-raising flour

2. Gently heat together the butter, sugar and golden syrup in a small saucepan until the butter has melted but the ingredients are not boiling.
3. Turn into a bowl and leave to cool slightly. Add the flour, Bicarbonate of Soda, oats and half the Chocolate Chips. Stir until well mixed.
4. Take small dessert spoonfuls of the mixture and use your hands to flatten them into cookies. Space slightly apart on the baking sheets and press the remaining chocolate chips on top.

Cooks tip: Make sure the cookie mixture is not too hot when you add the chocolate chips or they’ll melt and make the mixture sticky and discoloured
