Vanilla Butter Biscuits [Recipe]

This recipe is mine, that was passed on to me by my nan. It is simple yet delicious and makes beautiful melt-in-the-mouth biscuits.

INGREDIENTS

250 g / 12.5 oz butter, softened

140 g / 7 oz caster sugar

1 egg yolk

2 tsp vanilla extract

300 g / 15 oz plain flour

METHOD

Mix the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until soft and fluffy.

Add the egg yolk and vanilla and beat until fully combined.

Soft over the flour and stir/knead to combine.

Roll out the dough on a prepared surface and cut out desired biscuit shapes

Place the shapes on lined baking sheets and bake in a preheated oven on 190c for approx 10-15 minutes (you may need to adjust for your own oven)

Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack
