Mix the sugar and softened butter together until creamy. This can be done in a mixer, or if you're low tech - use the back of a fork!

Once the mixture sticks together to form a dough texture, form into a sausage shape, and put into clingfilm. Roll the sausage smooth, and freeze.

If you can't decide on flavour - get creative and combine vanilla and chocolate doughs!

TIP: experiment with the size / thickness of your cookies by adjusting the thickness you roll the "sausage" and the size you cut your cookies "discs".

Cut and Bake

Fancy a fresh cookie?

Simply take the frozen cookie "sausage" from the freezer, chop the desired number of cookie "discs".

Put your cookies on a tray in the oven for approx 20 minutes, 160 °C / 325 °F / gas mark 3. (This time will vary depending on the size / thickness of your cookies!)

Enjoy!
