BASIC BISCUITS

110g soft butter or margarine plus some for greasing

50g sugar

175g plain flour

1Put the oven on at 160°C/gas mark 3.

2Grease two baking trays.

3Put the sugar and butter or margarine into a mixing bowl. Squoosh and beat them together until fluffyish.

4Add the flour and mix it in.

5Using clean hands, press the mixture into one big ball.

6Break off a piece of dough the size of a ping-pong ball and roll it into a ball.

7Put the ball on to the baking tray and press it down (but not too hard) so it makes a rough biscuit shape.

8Repeat until nearly all the dough is used up, then make a silly shape with the last piece.

9Make sure your biscuits have a little bit of space between

them.

10Put the trays of biscuits in the oven and set the timer for twenty minutes.

11Have a drink and a runaround.

12When the timer goes off check your biscuits. If they are pale golden brown they are cooked. Take them out of the oven and leave them to cool. Keep them in the oven for a few minutes longer if they need more cooking time.
