  1. Set the oven to 190°C or gas mark 5.
  2. Put all the ingredients into a bowl and beat together to mix. Spoon
  3. level tablespoons of the mixture on to greased baking sheets, spacing them a little apart, to allow room for spreading while in the oven - you will need to bake in separate batches.
  4. Bake in the oven for 12-15 mins or until golden brown. Loosen each cookie lightly with a palette knife, but leave them on baking sheets to cool. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
