Soft and chewy cookies with Skittles thoughout.
Share:
Ingredients
- 150 g butter (⅔ cup) softened at room temperature and cut into cubes
- 130 g caster sugar (⅝ cups)
- 100 g soft light brown sugar (½ cup)
- 1 egg
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 g self-raising flour (2 cups)
- 136 g Skittles (1 bag/4.7oz)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180℃ (160℃ for fan ovens) and line two large trays with baking paper.
- Add the butter, caster sugar and brown sugar to a large bowl. Use a stand mixer or electric whisk to mix them together to create a thick paste.
- Next, add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
- Stir in all of the self-raising flour. When it's starting to stick together, use your hands to press it into a ball of dough.
- Add the Skittles to the cookie dough, leaving a handful aside to top the cookies with at the end.
- Divide the dough into 12 equal-sized pieces and roll into balls. Lightly press on them with your fingers to make discs that are around 1 inch thick.
- Place the cookies onto your lined tray, leaving a couple of inches of space in between to allow for spreading. I recommend baking 4-6 per tray.
- Bake for 11-12 minutes until they are JUST starting to turn golden brown at the edges. They'll look underdone at first but will continue browning and firming up as they cool.
- While the cookies are still warm and gooey, gently press a few of the leftover Skittles onto each one. Doing this after baking rather than before prevents the Skittles from cracking or melting.
- Let them sit on the tray until completely cool before enjoying.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- If dough is too wet, add more flour. If it's too dry, add a splash of milk.
