Hiya Lovlies, I'm sorry I know its been a while but I've been planning a lot of my christmas baking so didn't want to really bake too much, also uni deadlines uhhhhh! However I made these cute little biscuits for a mid week treat and they went down very well!
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups of plain flour
1 cup of butter
1 1/2 cups of caster sugar
1 Egg
2 tbs of milk
2 tsp of vanilla essence
1 tsp of baking powder
For the Filling
1/2 a cup of butter
1 1/2 cups of icing sugar
Jam of your choice.
Method
These little biscuits are so easy to make and so yummy, start by preheating your oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
Okay start by creaming the butter and sugar together in a bowl.
Gradually beat in the egg until the mixture is well formed.
Sift in the dry ingredients
Add the vanilla and the milk as need, Ie if the mixture is looking to dry and not binding, add the milk gradually as needed to make it form a big doughy ball.
Flour your surface and rolling pin and roll out the pastry to a fairly thin texture, this is your own preference on how thick you want the cookies to be but remember to adjust baking times accordingly.
Cut out your biscuit shapes, I had a little heart one but using a drinking glass to make circular shapes is fine.
Pop your little biscuits shapes onto a greased tray or baking paper and pop in the oven for 8-12 minutes until the biscuits have acquired a golden tinge.
Okay for the mixture its really easy just cream the butter and icing sugar together for some yummy buttercream,
Once the biscuits have completely cooled and a teaspoon of jam and teaspoon of buttercream to the bottom biscuit. Layer another biscuit over the top and dust with icing sugar!
Done!
