Cookie Dough Crackers
Makes 12
YOU WILL NEED:
For packaging
Greaseproof paper
Christmas wrapping paper
Ribbon
Gift tags
For cooking:
250g Butter, softened
120g Caster Sugar
300g Plain Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
80g White Chocolate
70g Dried Cranberries, chopped
HOW TO:
1. Put the butter and sugar in a large bowl and cream together with a wooden spoon until pale in colour.
2. Sift the flour and baking powder, then add the white chocolate and dried cranberries. Bring the mixture together to form a dough. You can of course also do this in a food processor.
3. Cut the dough in three. Roll up each third into a sausage shape. Wrap in greaseproof paper and twist at both ends. Place in the fridge for an hour to set.
4. Remove from the fridge and wrap in Christmas paper and tie at both ends with some pretty ribbon.
5. Write a little note on a gift card to say that the cookies should be cut into 8 pieces and cooked for 10-15 minutes in a preheated oven at 180oC/Gas mark 4. The dough should be stored in the fridge and will keep for up to a week.
6. Tie the card onto the ribbon.
