Method:
In a large bowl place the flour, sugar, Hogweed seeds and cinnamon, mixing them together well
Cut the butter in to small cubes and mix in thoroughly until well mixed
Make in to a ball, wrap in cling film and leave to rest in the fridge for 1hr
Place some baking paper on a baking tray, remove the mix from the fridge and split in to as many cookies as you’d like, dependent on the size of cookie. I usually make 10 from this mix
Place your cookies on the baking paper and put in a pre-heated oven on 180C for 10-15 minutes or until golden on top
Remove from the oven and leave 10 minutes to cool.
Enjoy them straight away or within 1 week.
