I have made these so many times now, work colleagues past and present can’t get enough of them. They are loved by anyone who tries them. I did add some chocolate chip to one batch, they were good too. I just added a teaspoon of mixed spice, didn’t notice really may need more, next time I’ll try cinnamon.
I added about 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Loved them.
