50g butter
50g golden syrup
50g plain flour
20g chopped walnuts
20g chopped almonds
20g chopped hazelnuts
40g candied orange peel
40g glace cherries
200g melted chocolate

Directions:

Preheat oven to 180c and line a baking tray.
Place the sugar, syrup and butter in a saucepan and heat until everything is melted and dissolved.
Remove from the heat and sieve in the flour
Add all of the nuts and fruit and mix together until combined.
Spoon the mixture out onto the baking tray into 16 even balls, leaving enough space between the balls for spreading.
Bake in the centre of the oven for about 8 minutes, until the cookies are a golden brown colour.
Remove from the oven and leave on the baking tray to cool.
Spoon a little of the chocolate onto the back side of the cookies and spread all the way to the edge. Use a fork to make a zigzag pattern in the chocolate.
Leave to one side to cool.
