I know there is another delicious recipe around these boards somewhere, and they are both very similar, but this is the one I make.
4 oz. butter
3 oz. sugar
5 oz. SR flour
3 oz. custard powder
1 egg- Cream the butter and sugar together
- Add the egg and beat
- Finally add sifted flour and custard powder and mix to a stiff dough.
- Make small balls and put on a greased baking tray, pressing down with a fork to make ridges and flatten the cookies.
- Cook in moderate oven (about 180 degrees) for 12-18 minutes or until lightly golden.
- Let them cool on the tray for a while before moving.
