Recipe's preparation

  1. If butter is hard, slice it into the bowl in pieces approx. 1 cm thick.

    Cream butter, castor sugar 30 secs on Speed 5

    Add lemon myrtle and flours. Combine 20 secs on speed 5, scrape down, then again for 30 secs on Speed 5, until combined. You may need to stir with the spatula to finish combining.

    Wrap in Thermomat or plastic wrap and chill for about 20-30 minutes. Don't leave it too long or it's hard to work with. Alternately, roll into 3-4 cm logs in plastic wrap.

    Heat oven to 160 degrees C.

    Roll out to approx. 1 cm thick (your Thermomat is great for this) and cut into shapes using very small cookie cutters, or if wrapped in plastic tube, slice into 1 cm thick discs. Place on a tray lined with baking paper. They don't spread much.

    HINT: Remove the shapes by lifting the Thermomat and peeling off with your finger. [/size]

    Bake for about 15 - 20 mins or until slightly golden. The time will depend on the thickness.

    When COLD, sprinkle with icing sugar.

Tip

Remember to get the extra dough from under the blades by spinning for 3 secs on speed 8.
