If you are looking for a simple yet satisfying way to treat yourself, then there is nothing better than homemade cookies and a hot beverage to warm you up on a cold winter evening.

Cookies made from scratch can now be made in only 10 minutes as Britain’s cooking legend Gordon Ramsay has shared his easy recipe to make this tasty baked good from home in his cookbook Ramsay in 10.

Not only can this easy cookie recipe be adapted to your tastes, but Gordon has also shared how to make his tastiest hot chocolate recipe as well, which pairs wonderfully with the cookies.

Gordon wrote: “Satisfy your cravings for freshly baked biscuits in just 10 minutes! These are flavoured with cinnamon, but you could use ground ginger, vanilla or even a pinch of chilli.

“You don’t have to make the hot chocolate, but I wouldn’t want you twiddling your thumbs while the cookies are in the oven. The olive oil, milk chocolate, and Horlicks make the drink wonderfully rich, but a cup of tea would be very nice too.”
