Ingredients You'll Need
For the Biscuit Dough:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
For the Icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
2-3 tbsp milk
Food coloring of your choice
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix well. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Step 2: Roll Out the Dough
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thickness. Use Christmas shaped cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes. If the dough starts to stick, sprinkle some flour on top. Carefully transfer the cutouts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 3: Bake the Biscuits
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Once done, let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 4: Decorate with Icing
In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and milk until you get a smooth icing consistency. Add a few drops of food coloring of your choice to create different colors. Use a piping bag or a ziplock bag with one corner cut off to pipe the icing onto the cooled biscuits. Let the icing set before serving or packaging.
Final Thoughts
This Christmas shaped biscuits recipe is versatile and can be adapted to any holiday or occasion by simply changing the cookie cutters and icing colors. These festive treats not only taste delicious but also make for great gifts and party favors. So, gather your loved ones and make some memories while baking and decorating these Christmas shaped biscuits.
