Lurpak have recently launched their new Lurpak Slow churned butter, which is inspired by traditional production methods. It is made by slowly churning cream over five hours in small batches. Lurpak claims this results in a fuller tasting flavour, well we had to put this to the test!
The girls and I made two batches of cookies, well I can't think of anything better really. Once batch used Lurpak slow churned and the other used a supermarket own brand butter. We followed the following recipe, after I managed to convince my daughter it was a bowl and not a hat!
Ingredients
250g Plain flour
1/2 tsp Bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp salt
170g unsalted butter
200g Brown sugar
100g Caster sugar
1 tbsp Vanilla extract
2 Eggs
325g Chocolate chips
Method
1. Preheat oven to 170C, Gas mark 3. Grease baking trays
2. Stir together flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt.
3. In a separate bowl mix melted butter, brown sugar and caster sugar.
4. Beat in Vanilla and the eggs until creamy.
5. Mix both bowls together and stir in the chocolate chips.
6. Place cookie dough onto baking trays to make your cookies.
7. Bake for 15-17 minutes until golden. Allow to cool.
After the cookies had cooled down it was time to put them to the taste test. Each batch was placed on a different plate and sure enough one plate disappeared much faster than the other
The result of the Lurpak bake off was
Lurpak slow churned butter really does make a difference in cookies and gives them a much fuller taste! I can't wait to try some on my toast!
