Junkyard Biscuits Or Junkyard Cookies

Step 1: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, caster sugar and brown sugar, together, scraping down the sides intermittently, for 3-4 minutes.

Step 2: Add the egg and vanilla paste and continue beating to combine ingredients.

Step 3: Sift the flour, baking powder and bicarb together, add the salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the butter & sugar mix ~ making sure not to over mix, you only want it just to combine.

Step 4: Mix through the chocolate, marshmallows, chips and pretzels and mix again just to combine.

Step 5: Using an ice cream scoop, portion out the biscuit mix into balls, place on a tray and refrigerate for at least an hour (or overnight) to harden and set dough.

Step 6: Preheat oven to 180 degrees.

Step 7: Grease and line two baking trays with baking paper. Place up to six biscuit balls on the tray, leaving enough room for the biscuits to spread.

Step 8: Cook until golden brown around the edges – check after 14 minutes.

Step 9: When cooked, cool the biscuits completely on the tray before transferring biscuits to an airtight container.

Step 10: These are very nice served warm.
