Soft chewy festive spiced cookies with all of your favourite flavours of mincemeat - what's not to love? Method Preheat the oven to 170°C (gas mark 3) and line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment. Cream together the butter and both sugars until pale then add the egg and mix together well. Sift in the flour, spices, salt and bicarbonate of soda and add to the butter sugar mixture and mix thoroughly until a dough forms, then stir in the sultanas and candied peel. Break off pieces about 1 tablespoon in size and roll into balls. Place these on the baking sheet leaving about 5cm space in between them to allow for them spreading out during baking. Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cookies are light golden brown. Leave to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes then move to a wire rack to cool completely.

Leave Your Thoughts Your Rating 5 stars4 stars3 stars2 stars1 star Email Your Review Ingredients Metric 135g Unsalted Butter (Softened) 80g Billington's Unrefined Golden Caster Sugar This is the highest quality caster sugar available and is a great natural alternative to refined caster sugar. It has a warm golden colour from its unrefined nature and is fine grained with a subtle buttery taste, making it perfect for deliciously light sponges, shortbread and macaroons. 80g Billington's Unrefined Light Muscovado Sugar The unique warm honey colour and creamy fudge flavour, which is incomparable to refined light brown sugar makes it the finest light brown sugar in the world. Its rich depth of flavour means it a superior substitute in any recipe calling for brown sugar. This versatile sugar is perfect for chewy cookies, gingerbread, biscuits and a huge variety of savoury dishes too. Why do we recommend Billington's? Billington’s unrefined sugars are produced at source, with the aim of locking in, rather than refining out, the natural molasses of the sugar cane. It is this difference that gives Billington’s its unique richness, aroma, depth of flavour and natural colour that we love. 1 Free Range Large Eggs 190g Plain White Flour 100g Sultanas or Raisins 80g Candied Peel (Lemon/Orange) 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon ½ tsp Ground Nutmeg ½ tsp Salt ½ tsp Bicarbonate of Soda Utensils Baking Sheet Mixing Bowl Sieve Wire Cooling Rack
