Cookies
Ingredients
- 25g butter, at room temperature
- 140g icing sugar, sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg yolk
- 375g plain flour
Directions
- Beat the butter and icing sugar together in a large bowl until very pale and fluffy
- Add the vanilla extract and egg yolk and mix well
- Sift in the flour and mix well until it forms a firm dough
- Roll out the mixture on a sheet of grease proof paper, dusting the paper and rolling pin with flour
- Roll to a thickness of 1cm and chill on the paper for at least 30 minutes, in the fridge
- Remove from the fridge and lightly dust each side with flour, using a second sheet of grease proof paper to flip over
- Use a cutter to make the cookies and remove the spare dough from the sides - transfer the grease proof paper with the cookies to a baking sheet
- Bake in a preheated oven at 190c for 10-12 minutes
- Allow to cool fully before decorating, if required. Royal icing works well and won't drip
