WHAT'S COOKING?
















If you're looking for something to do with the kids in the lead-up to Christmas here's an easy idea.

Buy a packet of Sweet Short Pastry sheets from the supermarket - any brand.

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.

Dig out your cookie cutters (find the kids old playdough cutters or use or a glass). Cut the patry into shapes.

Sprinkle with grated chocolate or sprinkles or sugar (brown or castor sugar).

Bake for 10 minutes.

Easy peasy. 2 sheets of pastry makes zillions. They taste and look just like shortbread with abolutely no hassle.

Elliot (6) made these this morning.
