I have MANY recipes on my blog for cookies. This tray bake takes the humble cookie dough recipe and eliminates the need for shaping into balls. It is super handy. You just tip the dough into a tin, pop it in the oven and bake to perfection.

This was the dessert I made on Mother’s Day and it went down equally well with the parents and kids. We served it with caramel ice cream, and the leftovers were thoroughly enjoyed with a cup of tea.

Hope you enjoy!
