Organic Valentine’s Biscuits for Littleuns

Ingredients:

• 125g unsalted butter
• 60g (3oz) caster sugar
• 60g (3oz) soft light brown sugar
• 1 egg
• ½ tsp vanilla essence
• 200g plain flour
• 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.
• Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cookies are a light golden on top. Leave on the sheets for about 10 minutes to cool and set before transferring to a wire rack.
• Melt the white chocolate for drizzling, and once the cookies are cool, drizzle over with a spoon.
