Hi guys,

Today we have Clíona doing another guest blog.

So over to you Clíona,

Fork Biscuits

250 grams butter

125 grams caster sugar

300 grams self raising flour

Method:

Step 1

Lightly grease two baking trays with butter.

Put the butter into a large bowl and beat with a wooden spoon to soften it.

Gradually beat in the caster sugar then stir in the flour. Use your hands to gather the sticky mixture together into a soft but not sticky dough.

Step 2

Roll the dough into all is about the size of walnuts and place well apart on the baking trays. Dip a fork into cold water and press on top of each ball to Flatten it and imprint the fork pattern.

Step 3

Bake in batches in a preheated oven at 180 C (160c fan ,gas mark 4) For 15 to 20 minutes until the biscuits are very pale golden colour. Transfer the biscuits from the baking sheet to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.

Thanks Clíona.
