    Categories : Cakes

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    12 oz SR flour
    4 oz Margarine
    1/2 ts Salt
    1 Egg, beaten
    8 oz Brown sugar
    1 t Vanilla essence

    Set oven to 350F or Mark 4. Grease a baking sheet.
    Melt the sugar, margarine and vanilla essence together
    in a saucepan very gently over a low heat. Remove from
    the heat. When the mixture has cooled add the beaten
    egg and mix together. Sift the flour and salt into a
    bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in the cooled
    egg/fat/sugar mixture. Knead into a stiff dough. This
    will be fairly dry, but it needs no extra moisture.
    Roll out the dough on a floured surface into 1/2 inch
    thickness and cut out the biscuits with a 2 inch
    biscuit cutter. Place on the baking sheet with
    sufficient space to allow them to spread. Bake for 20
    minutes until light golden in colour.
