Crispy Ginger Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    125 g butter
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1 egg
    1 3/4 cups self-raising flour
    1 cup ginger, chopped finely (crystallised)
    2 cups corn flakes
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 180\u00b0 Celsius (356\u00b0 Fahrenheit).
    Use an electric beater to beat the butter and sugar together. Beat until the mixture is combined and has become creamy.
    Add the egg and continue to beat well.
    Add the flour, crystallised ginger and half of the cornflakes (1 cup). Mix together with either a spoon or your hands.
    On a tray, crush the rest of the cornflakes with a rolling pin until the cornflakes are fine.
    Scoop a teaspoonfull of the mixture and use your hands to shape into balls which you then roll in the cornflakes you crushed earlier.
    Grease a baking tray with cooking spray/butter or cover with baking paper. Put the cornflake covered balls on the tray about 5cm apart from each other. Flatten the top of the ball with a fork gently.
    Bake for 10-20 minutes until the cookies are firm and have a light, golden color.
    Leave cookies on the baking tray for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. The cookies start to really crispen once cooled.
