Ingredients
  

  • 140 gr flour
  • 100 gr icing sugar
  • 100 gr butter
  • 150 gr raisins
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Cream the butter with the icing sugar. You can use a blender but I find it easier to do it by hand. Make sure the butter is very soft when you start this process, and that it has been out of the fridge for at least one hour before you start baking.
  • Add the first egg, then mix well until you add the second. Combine well.
  • Mix in the vanilla essence and then add the flour. Mix well until you have a creamy dough.
  • Add the raisins to the mix.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Add small scoops of the dough to the paper, and leave a space between as they will expand in the oven.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then take the tray out and let the cookies cool down before enjoying them.
