Cornflake and raisin Cookies,

This is one of those recipes that you can make at the end of the month when you are out of most ingredients. The final leftovers from the box of cornflakes, the last raisins no-one ate….This recipe is so easy you can leave the kids alone to make it, they have great fun dropping them into the cornflakes!

Ingredients:
125g Margarine/Butter
1/3 cup Sugar
1 Egg
2/3 Cup raisins
1 Cup cake flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 Cups cornflakes (lightly crushed – use the last in the box)

Handy Hint: “Cream margarine/butter” means beat with an electric mixer until smooth.

Method:
Preheat oven to 180°C. Cream margarine and sugar together. Add the egg and beat again. Add sifted flour, baking powder and raisins and mix with a wooden spoon (an electric mixer will damage the raisins). Place the crushed cornflakes on a large bowl. Take spoonfuls of the mixture and drop them 1 at a time into the cornflakes, coating well. Place each coated spoonful onto a well greased baking tray. Space them well as they tend to spread. Bake for 20 minutes. Cool on a cooling rack.

Make yourself a cuppa and enjoy!
