Quality Street Cookies
These cookies would work brilliantly with any selection box of chocs. We recommend keeping the cream-centred chocs, caramels and toffee pennies for tucking inside the cookie dough (otherwise they ooze everywhere and make a bit of a mess).

Basic Sugar Cookies
Yes. Some sugar cookie recipes online pride themselves on not having to be chilled, but we think letting the dough chill out in the fridge is an essential step. If you skip this step, the dough will be sticky and could spread while baking.
