Notes
RECIPE NOTES & TIPSIf you prefer, you can omit one or either of the sultanas or chocolate chips.This recipe can be made using either hand-held beaters, a stand-mixer or a Thermomix (see instructions above).Caster sugar is also known as superfine sugar – this type of sugar dissolves when beaten with the butter and therefore, is perfect for baking.Place 1-2 cups of extra cornflakes into a bowl to coat the cookie mixture in.Roll the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls and then press into the extra cornflakes to coat.Place the cookies a few centimetres apart on the baking trays (as they spread when cooked).Store the cornflake cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.
