Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 – 30 minutes
Makes: About 10 large biscuits
Skill level: So easy a 3 year old could do it (with a little adult supervision)

Ingredients

• self-raising flour – 75g
• caster sugar – 100g
• butter/margarine– softened – 100g
• half an egg – beaten
• vanilla essence – 1tsp
• cornflakes – crushed – a few handfuls
• salt – pinch
• Pre-heat your oven to 180c/gas mark 5

Find a large bowl, add the sugar and softened butter and cream together with a wooden spoon.

Add the half egg and vanilla essence and mix together.

Sift in the flour along with a pinch of salt and mix everything together (use your hands) until it forms a firm ball of dough.

Crush up some cornflakes and scatter onto a plate.

Take a teaspoon of the biscuit mixture and roll into a ball

Roll in the crushed cornflakes until thoroughly coated.

Place on a greased baking sheet and slightly flatten to more of a disc shape.

Continue this process until you have used up the dough.

Bake in the oven for between 20 and 30 minutes until golden brown.

Leave to cool on a wire rack.
