Ingredients:
Makes about 24 biscuits
225g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
100g butter, softened
100g caster sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven and prepare your ingredients
Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (or 160°C for fan ovens). Then, gather all of your ingredients and measure them out, making sure to accurately follow the measurements listed above.
Step 2: Combine the dry ingredients
In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well until all of the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 3: Cream the butter and sugar
In a separate larger bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This can be done using a hand mixer or by hand with a wooden spoon.
Step 4: Add in the egg and vanilla
Once the butter and sugar are creamed, add in the egg and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Step 5: Gradually add in the dry ingredients
With the mixer on low speed, gradually add in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, add in a splash of milk to help bring it together.
Step 6: Roll out the dough and cut out shapes
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use your favorite Christmas cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place them onto a lined baking sheet.
Step 7: Bake and cool
Bake the biscuits for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8: Optional icing
For an extra festive touch, you can decorate your biscuits with icing or frosting once they have cooled completely.
Now that you have your delicious Christmas biscuits, you can enjoy them with a warm cup of hot chocolate or gift them to friends and family. These biscuits can also be stored in an airtight container for up to a week, making them the perfect make-ahead treat for the holiday season. Enjoy!
