Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter and erythritol until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until incorporated.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until combined.
Add the milk and continue to mix until the dough comes together. It should be smooth and pliable.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 3mm thickness.
Use a rectangular cookie cutter to cut out biscuits. Use the edge of a dull knife or fork to press a design into the edges, if desired.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
