Is it because there’s only 50 days until Christmas, or have these chocolate reindeer cookies got us in the festive spirit already? 🎄
Ingredients
125g salted butter, softened
100g soft brown sugar
125g caster sugar
1 egg
200g Homepride Plain Flour
2 tsp baking powder
25g dark cocoa powder
100g chocolate chips
Pretzels
Red Smarties
Candy eyes
20g dark chocolate, for decorating
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C and line two baking trays.
Cream together the butter and sugars, then mix in the egg.
Stir in the chocolate chips, then sift in the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder. Mix until combined.
Roll into balls and place on the trays. Bake for 10–12 minutes, then leave to cool and firm up.
Melt the extra chocolate and use it to attach the pretzels as antlers, then add the red Smarties and candy eyes.
Leave to set, then enjoy!
