Ingredients

25g butter or margarine, softened

100g light brown sugar

125ml golden syrup

80ml strong coffee

3ml vanilla essence

315g Snowflake Cake Wheat Flour

10ml bicarbonate of soda

Filling

60g butter or margarine, softened

1  egg white

Method

  • Cream butter and sugar together. Add the syrup and beat well. Add the coffee and essence.
  • Sift the flour and bicarbonate of soda together. Add to butter mixture and mix well. Press the dough through a cookie maker or roll into teaspoon-sized balls and place onto greased baking trays, leaving enough space for spreading. Press down lightly with a fork.

  • For the filling: Mix all ingredients together. Fill two cookies at a time with filling, if preferred.
