Creamed Honey & Cinnamon Christmas Biscuits
Recipe - Creamed Honey & Cinnamon Christmas Biscuits
200g butter, at room temperture
½ cup icing sugar
⅓ cup Creamed Honey - Golden Nectar Real Leatherwood or Golden Bee Honey
2 cups plain flour, sifted
¼ cup self-raising flour, sifted
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tbsp milk.
Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Using an electric mixer, beat butter and icing sugar mixture in a bowl until pale and creamy. Add honey. Beat until well combined.
Place flours, cinnamon and milk in a bowl. Add butter mixture. Mix until dough begins to form. Turn onto a well floured surface. Knead gently until smooth. Divide dough in half and wrap each portion in plastic wrap. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 160C. Using a well floured rolling pin, roll one portion of dough out on a well floured surface until 5mm-thick.
Using an 8.5cm Christmas tree, angel or star cutter, cut out biscuits. At this point, if you would like to hang your biscuits, use a skewer to make a hole. Place on prepared trays. Bake, swapping trays halfway during cooking, for 10 to 12 minutes or until crisp and golden. Cool on tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
Serve, gift wrap or hang.
