Cornflake Chocolate Raisins Cookies


Serves: About 30 cookies

Ingredients:
  • 125g butter, chopped, softened
  • 2/3 cup caster sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 1 1/4 cups flour (less 2 1/2 tsp flour)
  • 1 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 1/2 cups cornflakes
  • 1/3 cup dark choc bits
  • 1/3 cup raisins
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a large, flat baking tray with baking paper or use a non stick baking tray.
  2. Using an electric mixer, cream butter, sugar and vanilla in a bowl until pale and creamy. Add flour. Mix on low speed until just combined. Add milk. Stir until dough comes together. Using a wooden spoon, stir in cornflakes, raisins and choc bits.
  3. Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls. Place on baking tray, allowing enough room for spreading. Flatten balls slightly with a spatula.
  4. Bake cookies for 10 to 12 minutes or until light golden. Stand for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining cookie mixture.
