Cook It Club members asked if they could make cookies so tonight that is what they made, using dried fruit, cranberry mix with coconut or for a special treat chocolate chips, some decided to add hazelnuts to give it a different taste. We were having such fun that photos were only taken at the end when all the cookies had been made so take a look at the photos below:-
