VANILLA SNAP BISCUITS: A DELICIOUS LITTLE COOKIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180 c / 350 f
• In a food processor mix the butter, sugar and vanilla until smooth
• Add the flour, egg and egg yolk and process until the mixture forms a soft dough
• Take the dough out the processor and knead slightly bringing it together in a ball and wrap it in cling film and place in the fridge for 30 minutes
• Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface or between 2 sheets of baking paper until about ½ cm / 5mm thick
• Cut the dough into approximately 7cm rounds
• Place the dough rounds on a baking sheet that has been lined with baking paper or silicone baking sheets
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes until golden brown
• Remove the biscuits carefully from the baking tray and allow them to cool on a wire cooling rack as they have a tendency to carry over cooking and could turn too brown once removed from the oven (I generally cool all biscuits on a cooling rack).
• When cooled, dust them with some icing sugar or decorate as desired.

VANILLA SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the butter and sugar and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined.
• Add the flour mixture in 2 batches, scraping down the bowl after each addition. Beat until the dough just comes together, being careful not to over mix.
• Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Place the ball of dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper and roll out to 1/4-inch thick. Keeping the dough in the parchment, transfer to a cookie sheet and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut out the cookies in the desired shapes and place on a half-sheet pan lined with parchment paper or an un-greased nonstick cookie sheet, at least 1-inch apart. Transfer to the freezer and chill for at least 15 minutes or until they are firm.
• Bake until the cookies are light golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Let cookies cool completely on the sheets before decorating.

Bake for 12-15 mins until golden at the edges (you may need to do this in batches). Cool on the trays for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool fully.
