Most Versatile Cookie Recipe Ever

• 50 g plain flour
• 50 g olive spread
• 40 g caster sugar
• 2 teaspoons eggs, beaten
• 12 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 12 teaspoon baking powder (optional -- I didn't add for my first batch and they turned out nice and crumbly)
• 3 tablespoons rolled oats
• 2 tablespoons raisins (can be replaced with other ingredients)

1. Preheat oven to 160 deg Celsius.
2. Line baking tray with cookie sheet.
3. Using a fork or an electric mixer, cream the olive spread and sugar together until light and creamy.
4. Add in the egg, 1 tsp at a time.
5. Beat well after each addition.
6. Add in vanilla essence.
7. Mix well.
8. In a separate bowl, sift in flour and add in rolled oats and raisins.
9. Mix well.
10. Pour the flour/oat/raisin mixture into the butter and sugar mixture.
11. Mix well.
12. If the batter is too dry or stiff, add more egg until desired consistency is achieved.
13. Use your hands to shape the cookies and place them on the tray.
14. Bake until golden brown, around 15-20 minutes.
15. Note: I had to adjust the temperature to 180 deg C at the 12 minute mark because they simply weren't browning, but after 2 minutes I turned it down to 160 deg Celsius Just bake until they look golden brown and keep an eye on them!
