The Cookie Recipe

I think sometimes you come across a recipe that you just know is going to be passed around and cooked hundreds of times and this cookie recipe is certainly worth its weight. Not only is it supper easy to make but you can pretty much throw anything at it and it seems to work!

So here is my recipe for Cranberry and white chocolate chip cookies.

Ingredients

215g plain flour

1 tsp baking powder

115g soft butter

125g light brown sugar

50g caster sugar

1 egg

100g dried cranberries

200g white chocolate chopped into chunks

Set the oven to 190 c /375 f/ gas mark 5

Put all the ingredients into a bowl and mix it all together till it forms a dough by hand this takes a bit of work but in my fabulous Kitchen Aid it takes seconds!

Place little rounds of the dough onto a baking tray lined with grease proof paper (you should get 18 cookies from the mix)

Cook in the oven for 10 mins or until they are just beginning to colour at the edges. ( you still want them to be soft as they will firm up when they cool)

Let them sit on the tray when you take them out the oven for 5 mins then transfer to a cooling tray.

And there you have it! I have tried lots of combinations of these cookies and Milk chocolate and hazelnut work really well too as does a bar or Cadbury's Bornville Chocolate Orange chopped into chunks!
