Thin, crispy and perfect with a cuppa, these shortbread biscuits are made festive with an embossed rolling pin
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups plain flour (all purpose flour)
- ⅔ cup rice flour
- 225 grams butter
- ½ cup caster sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk (if necessary to bind mixture together)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 170 degrees celsius (fan-forced).
- Cream butter and sugar well. Use a stand mixer if you have one.
- Add egg yolk and vanilla and beat well to combine.
- Gradually add sifted dry ingredients, folding to combine.
- Add enough milk and combine well to ensure mixture binds together.
- Turn mixture onto a lightly floured surface and knead well. "The longer the better" says Nana Ling in her original recipe.
- Roll mixture out to 2-3mm thickness. Use an embossed rolling pin if you have one to add a decorative finish.
- Cut rounds using a cookie cutter and use a spatula to transfer to a baking tray lined with baking paper.
- Place into the oven and bake for 12-14 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
