    Hello Folks!
    So here’s a really simple one for you :) But although these simple butter biscuits use very few simple ingredients…they are still absolutely delicious! Just traditional butter cookies, but you could jazz them up a wee bit by dipping or drizzling with chocolate or adding some chocolate chips to the batter….but try them plain, you might be surprised how moreish they are! One is never usually enough :)
    -Cheryl x
    _____________________________________________________________________
    What I used: Makes around 25 biscuits (if your raw dough is split into 20g or 0.7oz balls)
    200g or 7oz Plain (all purpose) flour - Sift twice
    200g or 7oz Unsalted butter - Soft or at room temperature (not straight from the fridge)
    100g or 3.5oz Caster sugar - Just use ordinary white granulated sugar if you don’t have caster sugar.
    50g or 1.7oz Ground almonds
    1/2 Teaspoon of salt

    So many recipes call for unsalted butter, then tell you to add salt. Depending on the recipe I just use salted butter and don't add salt. Looks good, it is one for my to try list... after the planned butter tarts.
