Ingredients

Servings
  • 230 g self-raising flour 1+⅞ cups
  • 90 g butter about ¾ of a stick, cold, cubed
  • 150 g white sugar (¾ cup)
  • 1 Medium egg
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 Teaspoon lemon extract
  • ½ Teaspoon gel food colouring lime green
  • 6 Tablespoons Sprinkles red heart

Instructions

  1. Add the flour to a large bowl. Rub the butter into it to create a breadcrumb-like mixture then stir in the sugar.
  2. In a small bowl or mug, whisk the egg, vanilla extract, lemon extract and green food colouring together until smooth.
  3. Pour the green mixture into the bowl with your dry ingredients and mix well. When it's starting to come together, use your hands to press it into a ball of dough.
  4. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes. In the meantime, preheat your oven to 180°C/350°F and line a large tray with baking paper.
  5. Divide the dough into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball then gently flatten them to make ½-inch thick discs.
  6. Place the cookies on your tray, leaving some space for spreading, and bake for 11-12 minutes. You'll know they're done when they no longer look 'wet' in the middle.
  7. Gently press the sprinkles into the cookies while they're still warm- this will help them stick.
  8. Let them cool on the tray before enjoying.

Notes

  • If you want to roll these cookies in icing sugar, roll them in granulated sugar first or use non-melting icing sugar/snow sugar. This will prevent the coating from disappearing in the oven!
  • Chilling the dough is not essential but helps enhance the fudgy texture.
  • Heart sprinkles can be substituted with any red candies such as M&M's or Skittles- even just one placed in the middle looks cute.
  • Temperature for fan/convection ovens should be reduced to 160C/320F.
