Cookies......

These cookies are based on a traditional recipe. You can add anything to this recipe to give it some interesting flavour. 

200g plain flour 

150g caster sugar

140g unsalted butter 

1 teaspoon baking powder 

1 egg 

 Method 1. Pre heat the oven to 180 C, lightly grease two trays. Then pour the sugar and butter into a large bowl. Mix the butter and the sugar until fluffy mixture. Then in a separate bowl beat the egg and then pour in with the sugar and butter mix.

2. In another bowl mix flour and baking powder together softly. Then pour the flour and baking powder in with the other mixture. 

 3. Mix into a sticky mixture (you may need to use your hands). Then put about a tablespoon of the mixture on the papered baking tray, press down softly  with your palm. Make sure each cookie mix bit is spread out as they will double in size. Repeat this action until no mixture remains in the bowl. 

Leave both the trays in the oven for 8 mins then swap them around and leave them in for another 5 mins then leave out to cool for at least 5 mins. There you have it.
