Gaby's Bakery - Piped Butter Biscuits

January 01, 2019

Butter Biscuits

These are such an easy go-to biscuit when there isn’t much time or you have unexpected guests. Remember those pre Covid-19?

Ingredients:
280gms plain flour
225gms unsalted butter
110gms icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tbsp milk

Chocolate version:
260gms plain flour
20gms cocoa powder

Method:
Preheat oven to 175⁰C

Prepare a baking tray with parchment paper. Place butter and sugar in a large bowl and beat until light and fluffy. Add the flour, vanilla and milk and continue to beat until all ingredients come together. Using a nozzle of your choice (I’ve chosen to use a plain circle), place it in the piping bag and then add the mixture.

Pipe out the biscuits onto the prepare tray, spacing them out. Place in the oven for appx 10 mins depending on their size, until they are slightly golden brown around the edges.

Take out and leave to cool on a wire rack.

Enjoy.

Is your hair drowning you? Einstein told us that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one form to another. Friction energy into heat energy, heat into light, light into electricity, us into daisies eventually etc. it’s endlessly morphing into something else but the amount of matter/energy in the Universe is finite.
