  Just made these they are really scrummy, more shortbready than I thought which made them nicer! My golf balls must be small because they made 28!! happy baking!

  These are really delicious. "you can make them again" from lambing crew. Needed a few extra minutes but all ovens differ. (mine made 21!)

  These cookies are very nice! I added Hershey's chocolate syrup since I had no white chocolate. They are a quick and easy recipe to do when you're short of time. Very nice!

  I'm all for encouraging children to cook; both of my sons are excellent cooks as proof of that but I look at the long list of recipes here to encourage children into the kitchen and 99% of them are sugar-based. More savouries would be great, not all children are inveterate Sweet-tooths!

  Less cookie, more shortbready, but still very tasty and disappeared very quickly!

  They're ok... Mine turned out quite dry and crumbly which was a bit disappointing.

  These were very morish with a shortbread like texture didn't last very long. I would put a touch more cinnamon in them next time and may not bother with the chocolate on the top.

  Delicious... just made these as Easter gifts, with my 6 year old son. We didn't add cinnamon and we added cranberries instead of sultanas...yummy!
