  I agree with the others that they are very sweet I may reduce the sugra next time. Also I don't know if it was my oven but they were not cooked in the time stated so i gave them a bit longer then they went over. My smarties also sort of dissappeared. I am going to try them again though as they look lovely in the photo if they go right.

  Made these for the scool fair and they turned out lovely! Cooked for slightly less than 15 min as I have a fan oven and the first batch was a little dark round the edges. Put-r 7 smarties on each cookie - one in the middle and 6 around that one in a circle and it worked - the smarties looked like a flower pattern once cooked! I only managed to fit 6 cookies on each large tray, so the trays had to take it in turns, which just meant the oven was on for a long time! Lovely easy recipe!

  Great recipe. I weighed the mixture and divided by 15. Each cookie was than the same size and there were no arguements over who got the biggest! <3

  I don't know if I did something wrong but these cookies were not soft and chewy at all. They were quite hard and it is a shame because the taste was there.

  Yummy! My daughter loves these cookies and they are perfect for her to take to school to share with her friends. A lot of cookie recipes have nuts in and i'm always weary with kids and nut allergies. We will be making these again for sure!

  I made these biscuits and i found they were simple, fun and delicious! i followed the recipe exactly too and i would love to try them again! they went down really well with everyone. I tried a tester from the oven and i liked them so much, i found i had to to "test" a few more before letting my family at them!

  A good recipe but found dough a bit soft so added flour. However would have liked lighter cookies (with more cracks) so now wondering if I should have persevered with the wetter dough. Not easy when making with a 3 year old! He throughley enjoyed making them btw & particularly liked pushing the smarties in. Also took out 50g of sugar as recommended by others as did not want it too sweet & ended up using mostly soft light brown sugar as ran out of caster which I think worked well. Will probably half mixture next time to make much smaller cookies & cook for less time as they are so big for little children.

  I am notoriously bad at baking biscuits so I didn't expect much, but WOW was I pleasantly surprised. I followed the recipe almost to the letter. The only differences were I used granulated sugar instead of caster and added a spoonful of custard powder. The cookies were amazing. Really big and wonderfully chewy, just like the "Rainbow Cookies" I used to sell when I worked at a well-knows cookie chain. 10/10
