Custard Powder Biscuits

These were a hit in the lunch boxes today, but I might need to try and tweak them so they are a bit healthier!

• 125g butter, softened
• 1 cup caster sugar
• 1 egg, at room temperature
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
• 1/2 cup custard powder
• 80g white chocolate, roughly chopped

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
2. Using an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until well combined.
3. Sift flour and custard powder together over butter mixture. Add white chocolate and stir until mixture forms a soft dough.
4. Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls. Place on prepared trays, allowing room for spreading. Using a fork, press dough to flatten slightly. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Stand on trays for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
