Chunky cherry fudge cookies

Another cookie recipe that my children love to help with (good and chopping fudge and cherries!)

Makes 18

Ingredients:

75g (3 oz) butter at room temp

75g (3oz) caster sugar

75g (3 oz) light muscovado sugar

1 tsp vanilla essence

1 egg, beaten

175g (6 oz) self-raising flour

100g (4 oz) of choc covered fudge bars (I use the Cadburys' finger of fudge bars)

75g (3 0z) glace cherries

Method:

1. Put the butter, sugars and vanilla in a mixing bowl and beat together until pale and creamy.

Stir in the egg and flour and mix until smooth.

2. Stir in the fudge and cherries then spoon 18 mounds onto baking sheets lined with a non stick baking paper/liner, leaving space between them to spread during baking

3. Bake in a preheated over 180 C (350 F) Gas mark 4 for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.

Leave to harden for 1-2 mins then loosen and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely

These are best eaten on the day they are made.

Enjoy!
