Ingredients
- 200 g all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 150 g unsalted butter
- 100 g light brown sugar
- 50 g granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp golden syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 100 g cornflakes
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy and light, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the golden syrup, vanilla extract, and egg to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Step 6
Gently fold in the cornflakes until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The biscuits will firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
