- Serves:
- 4
- Preparation Time:
- 15 minutes
- Cooking Time:
- 2 hours 45 minutes
- Total Time:
- 3 hours
- Oven Temperature:
- 160° c - 320° f
Step 1: You will need
- 30 g icing sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- A pinch of salt
- 130 g Plain flour
- 100 g corn flour
- 180 g butter
- A little flour for dusting
- and some icing sugar for the garnish
- 1 mixer with the flat beater attachment
- 1 spatula
- 1 rolling pin
- 1 biscuit cutter
- some baking paper
- 1 tray
- 1 small knife
Step 2: Preheat the oven
Before beginning your butter biscuits, set the oven to 160 degrees Celsius.
Step 3: Begin the dough
First, place the butter and the icing sugar into the mixer bowl.
Mix it for a minute on medium speed and then increase the speed to high.
Once the sugar is well-mixed with the butter, add the salt and the vanilla essence.
Step 4: Complete the dough and chill
Return the mixer to a low speed and add the flour.
Next, add the corn flour but mix it only until it is evenly combined.
Turn off the mixer and scrape the dough from the attachment.
Now allow the biscuit dough to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Make sure the dough is well-chilled or it will be impossible to work during the next step.
Step 5: Shape the biscuits
Sprinkle your work area, the dough, and the rolling pin with a little flour.
Slowly and gently roll the dough to a uniform thickness of about 1/2 of a centimetre.
Now using the cutter, carefully make the individual biscuits. To make it easier, you can dip the cutter into a little flour.
Use the small knife to help transfer the biscuits to the baking tray covered in baking paper.
Step 6: Bake
Place your biscuits into the oven and let them bake for 15 minutes at 160 degrees Celsius. They should have a whitish appearance when done.
Step 7: Remove and serve
You can now take your butter biscuits out of the oven and let them cool a bit.
While still warm, sprinkle them with a little icing sugar. Your biscuits are now ready to serve. If you can make yourself wait, let them cool to room temperature. Enjoy!
Tips & Comments
videojug has to make a way to change all the measurements into cups, it makes it so much easier for those wihtought a weight measurement tool.
I feel frustrated. Why don't you put gas mark temperatures when posting your oven temperatures?
agree with cassis. surprisingly, most cookie recipes start with turning the oven on. i don't. not until i'm almost ready to bake. as for the anonymous comment re all those mearurents, it helps to have a glass measuring cup for liquids, and several sizes cups for the dry ingredients. most american cook books ask you to rurn on the oven too soon.
do you need to use corn flour
Thanks! :)
