minutesIngredients
-
250 g butter or margarine
-
1/2 cup white granulated / icing sugar (depending on what you have)
-
2 cups cake flour
Method
- In a bowl, cream the butter or margarine and sugar until fluffy or pale in colour, using a whisk or wooden spoon.
- Sift the flour and gradually add it, when it starts to resemble crumbs, you can use your hands. Just make sure you have enough flour so that the dough doesn’t stick in your hands.
- You can place the dough in the fridge for at least 20 minutes, but if the craving has really got you, you can skip this step.
- Dust some flour on the working surface and rolling pin. You can use a glass to make sure that your dough is flat if you don’t have a rolling pin.
- You can use a glass again to cut your biscuits into a round shape or you can cut them into any shape you desire.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- You can go a step further on the biscuits and melt some white chocolate. Dip the biscuits in the melted chocolate and decorate with sprinkles.
