Remove the Butterfly attachment.

Step 3 - Mix The Flour & Custard Powder

Add the self raising flour and custard powder to the bowl.

Mix until combined.

TIP: scrape down the sides of the bowl partway through mixing.

Step 4 - Bake The Cookies

Roll the mixture into small balls and press down lightly with a fork.

Bake for 15 minutes or until cooked.

Expert Tips

• Soften the butter to room temperature before using
• Insert the Butterfly attachment to whip the butter and to assist with mixing through the sugar
• Roll the mixture into teaspoon sized balls and then press down lightly with a fork (TIP: dip the fork in flour to stop the mixture from sticking)
• Bake until just lightly golden (do not overcook). The biscuits will firm slightly as they cool.
• Make sure the biscuits have completely cooled before adding the icing (otherwise it will melt).
• Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
• You 'can' freeze the biscuits for up to 3 months, however, they are at their best when eaten fresh.
