3. Add the flour and baking powder. Beat the batter until combined. Split the dough in half. 

Here you have two options.

5.Option number two - add chocolate chips or nuts or cranberries (according to your preference) to the dough.

6.  Using ice cream scoop, portion the dough on the baking paper.

Bake for 12 minutes at 160 degrees. Remove from the oven and set aside with the baking paper they were baked on (you will need an extra hand with this). Let cool completely.
