Equipment

  • Baking Trays x 2
  • Thermomix
  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 125 grams butter at room temperature
  • 100 grams caster sugar
  • 240 grams self raising flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Icing Ingredients

  • 1 & ½ cups soft icing sugar mixture
  • 1 teaspoon butter room temperature
  • 1 - 2 tbsp boiling water
  • sprinkles to decorate

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan-forced) and line two baking trays with baking paper.
  • Place the butter and caster sugar into your Thermomix bowl and mix for 15 seconds, speed 3 to combine.
  • Scrape down the sides of your bowl and mix for a further 15 seconds, speed 3 or until pale and creamy.
  • Add the self raising flour, egg and vanilla extract and mix for 10 seconds, speed 4.
  • Select the kneading function and mix for 40 seconds.
  • Remove the bowl from your machine and use a table spoon to scoop up the mixture and roll into a ball. Place onto your baking trays. Repeat until all of the mixture has been used.
  • Lightly press down on top of each biscuit to flatten slightly. Place into the oven to bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until the edges of the biscuits start to turn golden.
  • Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the oven trays for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once completely cool, combine your icing ingredients in a bowl. Add one tablespoon of boiling water and then add an additional ½ tablespoon at a time until your icing is a spreadable consistency.
  • Use a butter knife to place the icing onto each biscuit and add the sprinkles.

Notes

  • It's important that your butter is at room temperature, it will take longer to combine with the caster sugar if it's cold.
  • Using a tablespoon to scoop up the dough will make approximately 40 biscuits. If you make your biscuits larger or smaller, the cooking time will vary.
  • These biscuits can also be enjoyed plain.
  • When it comes to the icing you can add a drop or two of your favourite food colouring to make these biscuits just that little extra special.
  • To store, place in an airtight container and keep at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Please note these biscuits will soften after a couple of days, especially if iced.
  • You can freeze this biscuit dough, simply roll into a log and cover with foil before placing in the freezer.
  • Both iced and plain biscuits can be frozen for up to two months.
