INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease pan or cookie sheets
  2. Sift flour and add in all dry ingredients – baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cinnamon, coconut, raisins. Make sure it is well combined.
  3. Add butter and cut in with hands or a fork and set aside. Using the cold butter will give it a crumbly texture.
  4. Mix essence and milk together then make a small well in your dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients to it. Mix well (but not over mix) – the dough will be firm and tacky.
  5. Add raisins and mixed cherries to batter
  6. Using an ice cream scoop or 2 spoons, scoop out the mixture  (about 2 inches in diameter or how big or small you’d like) unto the baking sheet and ensure they do not touch.
  7. Add a maraschino cherry on top (optional)
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown
  9. At about 17 mins or so, take them out and glaze with a simple syrup of sugar and water (1:1 ratio of sugar dissolved in warm water) and put back in oven for about 2 or 3 mins.
  10. When they’re out, sprinkle with sugar as a final step (optional)
