Ingredients

Method
  • 270 g flour
  • ¾ t cream of tartar
  • ½ t baking powder
  • 2 t cornflour
  • ½ t salt
  • ½ t ground cinnamon
  • 170 g butter
  • 200 g Muscovado sugar
  • 50 g sugar
  • 1 free-range egg
  • 1 free-range egg yolk
  • 1 T sour cream
  • 125 g Woolworths butter toffees
  • Woolworths cinnamon sugar, for rolling

Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients, except the sugar. Heat the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat until browned, then add the sugar. Allow to stand for 5 minutes until slightly cooled. Add the eggs and sour cream and mix.

2. Add the flour mixture to the brown-butter mixture and mix until combined.

3. Divide the mixture into 10 pieces, roll into balls, then press a toffee into each one, making sure the toffee is completely covered in cookie dough. Gently press each cookie to flatten and place on a lined baking tray. Chill for 15 minutes.

4. Bake for 15–25 minutes, then cool for 5–10 minutes. Roll in cinnamon sugar to serve.
