Maybe you know of someone who could do with a little pick-me-up. Take it from someone who does not cook - this is the easiest recipe to help you pass on a little love to someone who needs it. At home we call it the "Smartie Biscuit Recipe" and it's super quick, easy and delish. I failed at life since I could not find any Smarties in London - but I substituted them with M&Ms.

(I totally bought a hand-beater for the purpose of this recipe. Since this recipe is so easy it makes you feel like you are Nigella hence justifying the purchase of the handbeater).
I bought a big glass jar to put the cookies in and I designed a little label in three different sizes to stick on the jar. I added some ribbon on the jar neck and some washi tape to the cookie label.
