Rainy Day Smarties Cookies

So it was a horrible rainy summer day as usual in the beautiful country of Northern Ireland. So, naturally, Kyra and I decided to try and recreate one of greatest creations known to man! Dominoes cookies. You know the ones that are gorgeously gooey in the middle? But we wanted to put our own special twist on it so we decided to use those sweets with no artificial colourings or preservatives. Better known as Smarties. They're super easy to make and absolutely delicious. Confession: we might have had more than one..





Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup water
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups flour
2 tubes smarties 




Directions:


1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
2. Cream together butter, sugars, vanilla and salt.
3. Beat in cocoa powder.
4. Dissolve baking soda in water and mix into dough.
5. Stir in flour, and then smarties.
6. Place dough by spoonful on a greased baking sheet.
7. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes.
