Great cookie recipe!! Thanks. I made 3 large cookies and 5 smaller ones. I added a one whole egg because I didn't know what to do with the egg white and I didn't want to waste it. I just needed a bit more flour. And only had Dove' s self raising flour on hand. I guess I changed the recipe however they were amazing!! Thanks so much for the recipe, next time will try wholemeal and can't wait to try!

I'm a beginner cook and these cookies turned out gorgeous and delicious! I think my dough was probably wetter than it was supposed to be since I used organic muscovado sugar instead of regular bleached sugar, but I loved how chewy the cookies turned out! I used a heaping tablespoon of dough per cookie and was able to make 17. Thanks for this great recipe!
