About the bake
Our Muscovado Sugar Cookies are made with flaked almonds and light muscovado sugar for a crunchy golden brown finish. The recipe makes 20 cookies and takes around 30 minutes. If your looking for a sugary sweet alternative to ginger biscuits or shortbread, we think these cookies will be a hit.
Method
Step 1:
Pre-heat the oven to 190°C (fan 170°C, gas mark 5). Toast and finely chop the almonds.
Step 2:
Cream together the butter and muscovado sugar. Beat in the egg yolk, ground almonds and chopped almonds.
Step 3:
Stir in the flour to give a smooth dough. Divide and roll the mixture into 20 balls, about the size of a walnut. Roll each ball in the demerara sugar then place well apart on two greased baking sheets.
Step 4:
Flatten each one slightly using the back of a fork, then bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.
