Buttery biscuits

These are a great way to use up left over egg yolks if you've made my pavlova!

3 egg yolks
100g butter 
50g caster sugar
50g soft brown sugar
100g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp vanilla essence 
1/2tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp cinnamon 
3 tbsp milk chocolate chips

1)cream the butter and all of the sugar until fluffy
2)beat the egg yolks, lemon juice and vanilla extract then add to the creamed butter and sugar and mix everything together
3)mix together the flour, cinnamon and baking powder then fold into the butter mix once mixed in, sprinkle on the chocolate chips and stir in
4)line a 30x25 (doesn't have to be exact) baking tray with baking parchment and spread the mixture thinly on to the top leaving a gap around the edge (when cooking the mixture will spread out across the tray)
5)pop into a pre-heated oven at 180 degrees c for 10-15 mins until it starts to brown
6)remove from the oven - it will still look wobbly and soft but it will set once it cools
7)leave on the tray for 5 mins to cool slightly then slice into small (or big!) biscuits
8)delicious still warm or cold

✔️Top tip:replace the chocolate chips with raisins
