Skip to ingredients
Units:
- 150g self-raising flour
- 75g butter
- 50g golden caster sugar
- 1 tsp freshly ground cardamom
- 1 egg
- golden icing sugarand a little water (optional)
Method
step 1
Rub the butter and flour together until it forms small breadcrumbs. Then add the caster sugar and ground cardamom. Beat the egg in a separate bowl and add 2 tablespoons of it to the dry ingredients (you can keep the rest of the egg for another recipe).
step 2
Mix the ingredients together until they form a soft dough. Then wrap in cling film and chill in the fridge for around 30 mins.
step 3
Once the dough has chilled roll out on a floured surface so that it is around half a cm thick and cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on to a greased baking sheet (it should make around 12 biscuits) and bake at 180c for 10-15mins.
step 4
Allow the biscuits to cool. I decided to ice mine using golden icing sugar and a little water. I waited until the biscuits were cold and then spread the icing on to them using a pastry brush to get a thin layer of glazed icing.
