    Have made these about 10 times now, and always turn out great..have made them with toffee coated pecans.....crushed hazelnuts...white choc chips....walnuts....yummy. I always line my baking tray with greasproof paper, use a dessert spoonfull to measure, roughly shape them to rounds but don't flatten them, and find with my oven 11 mins is perfect cooking time. Thanks for supplying an easy, yummy recipe :)

    I've made these with both milk and white chocolate chunks, a chopped up 100g bar of Cadbury's Caramel (refrigerating it first helps the chopping) and M&Ms. Every time they're a hit!

    Very good indeed. I have always struggled to nail that millies type chewy cookie. Only comment would be they seem a little too sugary. I did use golden caster but ill be tempted to tone down the sugar for the next batch. I padded them out with muesli which seemed to work quite nicely. Ill be playing about with this recipe for sure to try and tweak it to perfection.

    Another tip I have found with these is to take them out before they brown, they will still be floppy but leave them on the tray and they will harden up. if you wait until they brown they will be too hard by the time they cool.

    Mmmmm these are lovely soft and chewy cookies. I put almond liqueur and vanilla essence in mine. They are so scrummy and really easy too.

    These are just as everyone has already commented - so quick, so easy and so delicious. Thanks for all the tips which really helped, I also added peanut butter - really scrummy. I forgot to buy biscuits for some builders but made these instead and they went down a Storm. Next time I will make double quantity !! :))

    Very easy to make and look good. They are VERY sweet. The second batch I made I reduced the sugar to 50g and they were still scrummy.

    Really great cookies. I just made mine with macadamea nuts and white chocolate. Yum! I did expect the cookies to flatten more during baking? Mine look like cute little tops - but maybe I just didn't put in enough butter or sugar? Anyway, they taste fantastic

    AMAZING cookies! Really quick and simple and exactly as described - lovely and gooey on the inside. I made these with honey instead of golden syrup and added 1tsp of vanilla essence, as well as only putting around 50g of sugar in and they were still really sweet - might even put less sugar in next time (and there definitely will be a next time!). Just going to add that if you haven't made these before when you take them out of the oven after 12 minutes or so do not be put off that they look like they haven't cooked at all (infact they're even softer than when you put them in!). I overbaked the first few as I didn't realise they would set properly upon cooling. :)
