Method:
-
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lightly butter a few baking trays.
-
In a large bowl, beat together the butter, sugar and egg until smooth.
-
Sift in the flour, cinnamon and baking powder, then combine to make a dough.
-
Add the sultanas and 100g of the white chocolate, and mix to combine.
-
Roll lumps of dough into balls the size of golf balls. Flatten these onto the trays, leaving enough space between each for them to expand.
-
Bake for 10 mins until golden (you may have to do this in batches).
-
Remove the cookies from the trays and cool on wire racks.
-
Melt the remaining white chocolate in the microwave on low in 20-second bursts. Using a small piping bag or a teaspoon, carefully drizzle a cross on top of each cookie. Leave to set before eating. These cookies can be stored in a cookie jar for up to 3 days.
