Cuisine: English
Serves: 20
Ingredients
225gm unsalted butter
75gm icing sugar
175gm plain flour
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180c
Line two baking trays with baking paper.
Put the butter and icing sugar into a food processor (you can use a mixer but be prepared for the sugar to puff into clouds).
Whizz and when combined add the flour a bit at a time and continue whizzing until the mixture is smooth and light.
Use a small spoon to put large walnut size drops on the baking tray, spacing out evenly. Don't worry about squashing them down, leave the lumps as they are, they will flatten out in the oven.You should get ten on each tray.
Cook for about 8-10 mins. They should be turning golden brown at the edges.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool before transferring to a cooling tray.
