A really easy biscuit recipe with minimal ingredients but loads of flavour!


Ingredients (serves 35 | makes 35 biscuits )

  • 200g castor sugar

Method

  1. Put the butter in a bowl and blend till light and fluffy then add the flour and mix till it forms a dough preheat oven to 180 degrees
  2. Using your hands roll the mixture into balls the size of a walnut and place then on a lined flat tray making sure you space them two centimetres apart you might need another tray also use a fork to slightly flatten the biscuit dough
  3. Now place your trays in a hot oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or untill golden brown let them cool on tray for 5 minutes then place biscuits on a rack to cool further
  4. Enjoy them as they are or add some icing!
