Novelty Cookies – Footy Players

Amanda (Simple home cook)

Novelty cookies are fun and a good way to liven up the standard biscuit. 

Fun Cookies – Footy Players

It’s footy finals time so let’s take the opportunity to turn some ordinary cookies into little footy players holding a ball. I made these when my k1010ids were at school and they were stoked when they got home and saw them. They are super easy but really effective.

Ingredients

  • 125g butter, melted
  • ¾ cup caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 2 ¾ cups plain flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Almonds and chocolate buds
  • Writing icing (optional)

 Footy Player Cookies

  1. In a large bowl, add melted butter, sugar, eggs & vanilla & whisk until combined.
