Ingredients

250g butter
250g rye flour
100g plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
250g raw sugar
2 eggs

Then the flavor combos, which include:
1 cup chopped almonds
1 cup chocolate pieces

…or…
1 cup cranberries
1 cup pepitas

…or…
1 cup glacé ginger
1 cup chopped dried figs

Or whatever other flavorful things you like – you get the idea. Once you’ve chosen your cookie flavors, you can proceed…

Method

Pre-heat oven to 160C and line a couple of baking trays with baking paper. Melt the butter and allow to cool slightly. Meanwhile combine the flours, sugar and baking powder, fold through the butter, eggs, almonds and chocolate until just combined.

Roll the whole thing into a big lump, and make into a 10cm diameter sausage. Wrap it up in paper and put in the fridge to firm and chill, or the freezer if you’re prepping days ahead. When you’re ready to bake, slice into 1cm thick rounds and bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned.
