125 g softened butter
125 g (2/3 cup) brown sugar
3 tablespoons golden syrup
1 egg
225 g (1 1/2 cups) self-raising flour
200 g M&M’s

Method

1.

Using a stand mixer with a whisk or electric beaters, cream together the butter and sugar for 1 minute. Add the golden syrup and egg. Watch it go round and round for another minute, then add the flour and let the mixer do its thing for another 2 minutes.
2.

Spoon the cookie mixture onto baking paper and spread it out to a 30 cm circle, about 1 cm thick.
3.

Now for the fun part. Decorate the cookie with the M&M’s. Use all the colours and make sure it looks super fun. Pop it in the air fryer and cook on 175°C for 8 minutes.
