Favourite Recipe Friday - Smarties Cookies

I love making these cookies, they are perfect for rainy days to keep the children occupied and are simple and tasty too.

Ingredients:

100g Margerine
75g Golden Caster Sugar
2 Tablespoons Golden Syrup
175g Self Raising Flour
2 Tablespoons Milk
Smarties

Method:

	Heat oven to 180ºC, 350ºF, Gas Mark 4. Grease or line with baking parchment two baking trays.
	Beat the margarine until soft, add the sugar and cream together until light and fluffy.
	Stir in the syrup, flour, chocolate chips and milk and mix well.
	Place spoonfuls of the mixture on the prepared trays, place 4 or 5 smarties on them, don't worry if they are close together as they will spread apart when they bake and bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the tray immediately and place on a wire rack to cool.

Pop in a tin to keep fresh, if they last that long anyway and enjoy.
