Title: Butter cookies

Butter cookies by Luke Nguyen

Ingredients

125 g unsalted butter, room temp
115 g superfine caster sugar, (I re blitzed mine)
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp natural vanilla extract, I used 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
225 g plain flour

Method

Place butter in TM until creamy looking

Add sugar, salt & vanilla, beat on speed 4 until mixed well

Add the flour, I used the  :: button until the crumbs were clinging together

Remove from TM, combine together with hands, a few seconds, wrap in glad wrap, put in fridge for 1 hour

Preheat oven to 180oC, roll out & cut into shapes, place on lined baking tray

Cook 10 mins or until golden

Leave to cool on tray, then transfer to wire rack.

This made 25 bone cutter cookies and I will then drizzle them with chocolate.

Enjoy

cookie - I made these yesterday and didn't put any decoration on them. They are lovely Hally. Thanks. I made a couple of changes when I made them - laziness on my part. I blitzed the sugar and then added the butter and creamed them on speed 3. I couldn't be bothered rolling it out so when I put it in the fridge I made it into a log shape. Then after 1 hour took it out and sliced 1cm thick biscuits off. Very easy. They sliced really well too.

Hi Luke
Your cookies sound nice, just wondering if you could clarify the first bit about the butter eg speed?
Thanks

The biscuit barrel is empty here so I've just printed these off and will make them.
