Smarties cookies – very quick and easy to make

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (160 degrees for fan oven) or 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grease a baking tray.

In a bowl, add 100 grams of very soft butter and cream it.

Add 100 grams of soft light brown sugar to the butter and cream together.

Mix in 1 tablespoon of golden syrup until well incorporated.

Sift in half of 150 grams of self-raising flour and mix it in.

Add the remaining flour and mix until combined.

Add 3 tubes of smarties and mix them into the dough.

If the dough looks dry, knead it with your hands and add 1 tablespoon of milk if necessary.

Take a big spoon of the cookie dough and roll it into a ball, making it larger than a small cookie.

Place the dough balls on the greased baking tray, spaced far apart.

Bake in the oven for about 12 minutes.

Once done, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on a baking tray.
