One easy cookie base, endless flavours. Add whatever chocolate, nuts and dried fruit you love (or have on hand) for a new batch every time.
These choose-your-own-adventure cookies are mixed and baked in the Thermomix in about 45 minutes including cooling, and the one easy base makes 24 cookies with whatever chocolate, nuts and dried fruit you like.
I love creating recipes that give you flexibility in the kitchen, again making your life EASIER. Often you might not have exactly the ingredients in my recipe, but you have probably got something similar. I do not want you wasting time and money heading to the supermarket, simply use what you have.
Also, leaving practicalities aside, your family's favourite cookie might not be the same as my favourite cookie. And at the end of the day, my recipes are not about me, they are about you. What you like, what you cook, what you eat. So with this recipe, I have given you the base, and you can add in whatever flavouring you like (or have on hand).
Get the kids involved, get creative. It is a new recipe every time. I like white chocolate and cranberry (pictured), but that is just me. Enjoy xx
