Oh yummy! So making a note of these! Thanks.

How are you??

I'm well!! Thanks!! :) So looking forward to Christmas! It's absolutely the best time of the year! :D These are easy! Don't worry too much about the sifting thing though -- if you do that the dough isn't very stiff and hard to roll into balls. xx

Did you get a chance to try them? :D I made three batches this Christmas and I think the closer you cook them to the 10 min mark (leaving a few min to cool before removing them from the sheet) the better they are - more soft and less tooth-breakish). You think so?
