CRANBERRY OAT COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix all the dry ingredients (the oats, desiccated coconut, sugar, flour and cranberries) in a large mixing bowl.

• Pour the butter and golden syrup mixture into the dry ingredients. Using the Dualit Hand Mixer and Flat Beater attachments, combine all the ingredients. Your mixture should reach a crumble/breadcrumb consistency.
• Using your now empty butter bowl, mix the bicarbonate of soda with 2 tbsps of boiling water and add to your main mix.

• Flatten the balls slightly and add any additional toppings desired.
• Bake in a preheated oven on 180ºC, 160º Fan or Gas Mark 4 for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
• Once your cookies are fully baked, place them on a wire rack to cool.
• Whilst your cookies cool, place the white chocolate in a heat proof bowl and melt over a pan of boiling water.
• Use the melted chocolate to drizzle across the cooled cookies. Allow the chocolate to set and then store in an airtight container (or serve immediately if you're like us and just can't wait!).
