Set the oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and cover two baking sheets with parchment. Beat the butter and both sugars until pale and light, then mix in the egg and vanilla. Stir in the flour, bicarbonate of soda, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt until combined.

Place 10 heaped tablespoons of dough on the trays, spaced well apart so they can spread. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are firm but the centres are still soft; they firm up as they cool. Leave on the tray for a short while and eat warm, or move to a rack to cool fully. They keep in an airtight tin for three days.
