Three ingredient shortbread

Serves:

Ingredients

• 250g butter
• 1 cup caster sugar
• 1 ¾  cups plain flour

Method

Preheat oven to 200°C or 180°C fan-forced. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper and set aside.

In a bowl, using a mixer, cream the butter and sugar.

Add a little of the flour at a time with the mixer running until it is all combined.

Roll teaspoon-sized balls and place on the baking tray. Use a fork to push them down gently. Make sure that they are spaced out well on the tray as the biscuit will spread during baking.

Bake for 15-17 minutes. Leave to cool on a tray and store in an airtight container when cooled.

Notes:

• These biscuits are very buttery and delicate. If you want a sturdier biscuit, add an additional ¼ cup of flour to make them heavier.
• This mixture makes a LOT of biscuits. They really spread out on the tray so you may need to bake a few batches or even halve the mixture.
