Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar using a wooden spoon or hand mixer until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add in the vanilla extract and mix until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a crumbly dough forms.
Add the milk to bring the dough together. Knead gently with your hands until the dough is smooth but not sticky.
Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about 5mm (1/4 inch) thickness.
Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes or simply slice into rectangular biscuits using a knife.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking trays, leaving a little space between each one to allow for slight spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the Vicki Bickies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Enjoy with tea, coffee, or as a standalone treat!
