Ingredients
- 125g unsalted butter
- 60g (3oz) caster sugar
- 60g (3oz) soft light brown sugar
- 1 egg
- ½ tsp vanilla essence
- 200g plain flour
- A pinch of salt
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 80g dried cranberries, chopped
- 60g white chocolate chips plus 60g white chocolate for drizzling
Method
- Preheat the oven to 170°C/325°F/Gas mark 3.
- Cream together the butter and both types of sugar, then break in the egg, add the vanilla essence and mix well together.
- Sift together the flour, salt, cinnamon and bicarbonate of soda, then add to the creamed mixture until a dough forms. Lastly stir in the cranberries and chocolate into the dough.
- Wrap in cling film and put in the fridge for half an hour to an hour. Flour a surface and roll out the dough until it is around 1 ½ cm thick (if the dough is too wet, sprinkle flour over the surface of the dough). Using cookie cutters, make shapes out of the dough and place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
- Remove and say cook in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before decorating.
- Melt the white chocolate for drizzling, and once the cookies are cool, drizzle over with a spoon.
