I actually didn't mean to make cookies....they were kind of a happy accident as I should have been making cupcakes but my mix was too thick and I didn't have any more milk left to thin it down so I had to amend it a bit. The kids devoured them in no time regardless!

Love these! If you like them a little thicker, chill the cookies in the fridge a half hour before baking so they don't spread so much. If you don't need these to be gluten free, replace the flours and starches with 150g (1 & 1/4 cups) plain flour -

I really like the red & green colours in these, very Christmassy, especially with a little dusting of icing sugar 'snow' on the tops. If you can't do nuts, leave them out or add extra cranberries -

These are a real taste of Autumn. Ideal for a snack as they're packed full of goodness. My kids thoroughly enjoy them. They're basically flapjacks but in a different shape. I highly recommend adding some dried chopped apple if you don't use the instant porridge oats I use, around 40g or 1/3 cup -
