Indulge in the simple elegance of these Soft Vanilla Dream Biscuits, where the classic flavor of vanilla shines through in every tender bite.
Ingredients:
- 120 g butter, softened to ensure a smooth mixture
- 3 tbsp sunflower oil, for a delicate crumb
- 50 g powdered sugar, for a gentle sweetness
- 30 g cornstarch, to create a melt-in-your-mouth texture
- 150 g all-purpose flour, for the perfect biscuit structure
- 1 heaped teaspoon vanilla extract, for a rich and comforting flavor
Instructions:
- Begin by creaming together the butter, sunflower oil, and powdered sugar in a bowl. This mixture should be light and airy.
- Enhance the flavor by adding the vanilla extract, fully incorporating it into the creamed mix.
- Gradually fold in the flour and cornstarch, bringing the dough together into a soft, pliable ball. If the dough is too tacky, add a little extra flour until you achieve the right consistency.
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F), setting the stage for baking.
- Roll the dough into small, even balls, each weighing about 20 grams. Gently press them down on a baking sheet lined with parchment, and imprint your chosen designs to give them character.
- Bake the biscuits for 10-15 minutes. Watch for the subtle golden hue on the bottom while keeping the tops pale and interesting.
- Once baked, let the biscuits cool on the tray, setting them into their final, crumbly form.
- For a final touch of sweetness, dust the biscuits with powdered sugar, giving them a delicate, finished look.
Serve these Soft Vanilla Dream Biscuits with tea or coffee, or enjoy them as a standalone treat. Their simplicity is their strength, offering a comforting taste and texture that's sure to please. Delight in each vanilla-kissed morsel! 👩🏻🍳🍪✨
