Buttery, crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle and a wonderful accompaniment for homemade ice-cream. These are quick and simple to make.

Ingredients

Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩‍🍳 method for this recipe

• 225 g (8 oz) butter, softened
• 225 g (8 oz) sugar
• 2 egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 110 g (4oz) oats
• 225 g (8oz) plain flour
• 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
• ½ teaspoon salt

Mise en place

• Preheat the oven to 160° C (325° F - gas 3)

Method

1. Line a baking tray with grease-proof paper
2. If you want to be a purist, whisk the egg yolks and vanilla together, beat the butter and sugar then fold in the dry ingredients and mix until you have a 'dough' that stands-up on its own.
3. Or, being a lazy sod like me, sling it all in a food processor and blitz it.
4. Roll the cookies into balls and place on the baking tray with enough room for them to spread out.
5. Bake for 14 minutes
6. Remove and cool on a rack
