I found this on someone's blog, but now I can't find it again! I did find the same base recipe I used here: http://www.recipesindian.com/i ndian_recipes/indian_snack s_recipes/Butter-Biscuit.html. If you know what blog featured the recipe, please let me know! Read more I used half / half butter and shortening for sturdiness, added brown sugar for flavour and decorated them with pepitas and a Craisin centre. I also watched these like a hawk in the oven - they can be finicky because they contain (gluten-free) chickpea flour as part of the batter and spread like crazy! See less
Ingredients
- 1 oz salted butter, room temperature shopping list
- 1 oz shortening shopping list
- 1/2 cup sugar shopping list
- 1/4 cup brown sugar shopping list
- 1 tsp vanilla shopping list
- 3.5 oz flour shopping list
- 1 oz chickpea flour shopping list
- 1/2 tsp baking powder shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 300F. Line or lightly grease a cookie sheet (I reccommend lining, especially with these as they can get greasy).
- Cream together butter, shortenning and sugars very well, until fluffy. Add vanilla and beat smooth.
- Whisk together flours and baking powder in another bowl.
- Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix in the dry ingredients gently.
- Make dough into small (1-oz or so) balls and press down very slightly. Decorate if desired.
- Bake for 10 minutes, cool completely on sheets.
