Prepare our make-ahead fairy bread cookie dough, freeze, then effortlessly bake for delicious cookies on demand.
Ingredients:
  • 250g butter, softened
  • 215.00 gm caster sugar
  • 2 tsp Queen Vanilla Bean Paste
  • 625.00 ml plain flour
  • 125.00 ml mini M&M’s, roughly chopped
Instructions:
  • With an electric mixer, cream together butter, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy which should take about 5 minutes. Incorporate the egg and mix until just combined. Add the flour in 2 batches, stirring until just combined, and then gently fold in the M&M’s. Transfer the dough onto a clean surface and knead it into a smooth ball.
  • Prepare the dough into a 30cm-long log shape. Wrap it in baking paper and place in the freezer until firm, for about 30 minutes as per the note.
  • Preheat your oven to 180C/160C fan-forced and prepare 3 large baking trays with baking paper.
  • Unwrap the cookie log and slice it into 1cm-thick slices using a serrated knife. Arrange the slices 3cm apart on baking trays. Bake one tray at a time for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges begin to turn light golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the trays for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack lined with baking paper to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!
