Ingredients

  • 130 g butter
  • 50 g caster sugar
  • 150 g light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 280 g gluten free plain flour
  • 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp cornflour also known as corn starch
  • 200 g Kinder chocolate chopped (2 packs of 8)
  • 120 g Schar Melto chopped (4 individual bars)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 160C Fan / 180C. Prepare a 9inch square baking tin with baking paper (leave enough overhang to lift out the bars later once cooked).
  • Add your melted butter and both sugars to a large bowl and mix together. Do this until totally combined - it will take a few minutes with a spatula by hand.
  • Add in your egg and vanilla extract and mix again until fully combined.
  • Add in your flour, xanthan gum, bicarbonate of soda, salt and cornflour and mix (I still do this by hand). It can take quite a bit of time to fully combine but you should be left with a yummy cookie dough!
  • Add in your chopped up Kinder chocolate and chopped Melto bars and mix into the dough evenly. Leave a small amount of the chocolate to pop in the top of the cookie bars.
  • Place your cookie dough into your prepared tin. I spoon mine in and push it to the edges making sure its an even layer without any gaps. (Get your hands in there if need be!)
  • Push some Kinder chocolate into the top of the cookie dough.
  • Place in your preheated oven for about 20-22 minutes until a skewer comes out fairly clean.
  • Leave to cool in the tin (you can lift them out to cool on a cooling rack after about 20 minutes if you want to). You might like to add some extra pieces of Melto or Kinder Chocolate to the top to melt on whilst its cooling - completely optional!
  • Cut into squares. Enjoy!
