Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 150 grams Unsalted butter
- 60 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 12 pieces Soft caramels
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 10 grams Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt.
In a separate bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Stir in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Flatten each dough ball slightly and place one soft caramel in the center. Wrap the dough around the caramel to fully encase it, then roll it back into a ball.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Lightly flatten the tops with your fingers.
Brush the tops of the biscuits lightly with milk to promote a golden finish during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges turn a light golden color.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Dust the cooled biscuits with powdered sugar before serving for an extra touch of sweetness and presentation.
