Recipe: Spiced Christmas Shortbread

Hope you enjoy my Spiced Christmas Shortbread to share with your friends and family this year...

INGREDIENTS:

• 10 tbsp unsalted butter unsalted butter, at room temperature 142g
• 1/2 cup sifted Icing sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 180g
• 1/2 teaspoon Garam Masala
• 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon finely diced Dehydrated Orange or Orange Peel

METHOD:

Place butter into a bowl of your food mixer and whip until smooth. Add in remaining ingredients and mix till just combined.

Place the combined mix onto a sheet of baking paper and roll into a sausage shape. Place in the refrigerator and allow to set for at least 1 hour.

Take Biscuit Roll out of the fridge and slice into rounds. Place onto a baking sheet, allowing room to expand, and bake in a Preheated Oven of 175C for around 10 mins or until turning golden. You want a little colour but not too much as the mix turns browner the flavour changes to a more nutty flavour.

Allow to cool on tray for 10 mins then serve or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
