Method
-
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Cream together butter and sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy.
-
Mix in egg and vanilla. Mix baking powder, bicarb soda and cream of tartar. Add flour slowly.
-
Now, separate the dough into four mixing bowls.
-
Sprinkle two tablespoons of jelly crystals on the cookie dough (only one flavour per bowl).
-
Using your hand fold and mix or even knead the jello until all is combined and the colour is solid throughout.
-
Add a few drops of food colouring in -- or more if you'd like the colour to be more vibrant.
-
Scoop 1 tbsp sized amount of cookie dough, roll onto a biscuit tray lined with baking paper. Do the same for the rest of the dough.
-
Press down and flatten with the back of a spoon.
-
Chill the dough at least 30 minutes to 2 hours.
-
Bake for 9 minutes. Then remove. Now, have a bite! Make sure it's not too hot, though. Let it cool for a few minutes and then serve.
