Charming points made in group (5)
I believe the answer is:
sweet
'charming' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'points made in group' is the wordplay.
'points' becomes 'we' (two compass points).
'made in' is an insertion indicator.
'group' becomes 'set' (both can mean a collection).
'we' put inside 'set' is 'SWEET'.
(Other definitions for sweet that I've seen before include "Candy item" , "(see 15 across) A Chinese sauce" , "Having a sugary taste" , "Kind" , "darling" .)
