Chocolate Chip and Sultana Cornflake Cookies



A new school year starts tomorrow and like every other year I have great plans to give my kids homemade treats for their lunch boxes rather than packaged food.  So tonight with a few moments free before dinner I pondered the Internet looking for a recipe to make some cookies for my sons lunch box tomorrow.  I found a recipe that I thought I could adapt with what ingredients I had in the cupboard.  This was the end result.  

Makes 18

INGREDIENTS
110g softened butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup sugar (I used the equivalent in Stevia powder)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups self raising flour
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup sultanas
1/4 cup Nestlé Milk Choc Bits (you could use white or dark bits or mini m&m's)
1 1/2 cups cornflakes

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius.
Cream butter and sugar, add vanilla extract.
Mix in remaining ingredients.
Roll into small balls and place on a baking paper lined oven tray, giving a slight press down.
Bake in oven for about 20 minutes or until lightly golden.  Remove from oven and let cool on tray. Store in an airtight container.
