Cookies are a beloved treat year-round but take on a special charm during winter.

The cold season makes cookies feel extra cozy, whether enjoyed fresh from the oven or paired with a warm drink like hot chocolate, tea, or coffee.

To help ease the process, 's cookbook "Ramsay in 10" features two recipes perfect for heating things up without slaving away in the kitchen.

The celebrity chef said: "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."

Ingredients

Soft butter (100g plus extra for greasing)

Self-raising flour (150g)

Light or dark brown sugar (40g)

1/3 tsp of cinnamon

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180C/ 160C Fan / Gas Mark 4. Grease a large baking tray with some butter, then place the butter, sugar, and cinnamon together in a mixing bowl.

Using a wooden spoon, cream together the ingredients and then add in the flour. Keep mixing until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.

Divide the cookies in 12 equal parts and roll them into balls (make sure you have washed your hands for this step). Place them onto the greased baking try and flatten them down with a fork.

Bake in the oven for several minutes, until the cookies are golden brown.
