Jumbles cookies are a popular 17th-century dessert from England. They are known for their crunchy and multi-textured nature that comes from a combination of peanuts, chocolate, and candy-coated chocolates. The cookies are soft from the inside and crispy from the outside, making them a perfect snack or dessert any time of the day. You can customize them by adding or omitting some of the ingredients or replacing candy-coated chocolates or peanuts with other nuts or dried fruits of your choice.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.	Beat butter and sugar together in a stand mixer.
3.	Add egg to the mixture and continue to beat for another 2 minutes.
4.	In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder.
5.	Add flour mixture to butter mixture slowly and whisk until it combines.
6.	Stir in candy-coated chocolates, peanuts, and chocolate pieces using a spatula.
7.	Roll out small globes on the baking sheet using the dough and flatten them a little.
8.	Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
9.	Take the baking sheet out of the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
