Custard Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• sift dry ingredients into a bowl.
• add butter and kneed well.
• roll into small balls or using a cookie press make biscuit shapes and place into a greased baking tray.
• bake in pre heated oven 180 degrees Celsius for approximately 20 minutes or until light golden brown in colour.

Steps:

• Pre heat the oven to 180C.
• Cream the butter and sugar together.
• Add the egg, self raising flour and custard powder. Mix until smooth.
• Roll out on a floured surface and use a biscuit cutter to cut your biscuits.
• Transfer to a non stick baking tray and bake for 15-20 minutes.
• Once cool two biscuits can be sandwiched together using butter icing or served individually.

Steps:

• Make the biscuits:
• Sift the flour, custard powder, powdered sugar, and baking soda into the mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Slowly add the butter, one cube at a time. Scrape down the sides of the bowl from time to time and continue to mix until a smooth dough is formed.
• Remove the dough from the fridge 15 minutes before rolling it out, and preheat the oven to 325°F/170°C/150°C fan/Gas Mark 3. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to roughly ⅛-inch/3mm thick. Use a 6cm pastry cutter to cut 20 rounds from the dough, and transfer the rounds to two baking sheets lined with baking parchment, leaving 1cm between the rounds. Bake the biscuits for 10 minutes. They will look slightly golden, but it's important that they don't take on much colour. Allow the biscuits to cool on the sheets for a couple of minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the filling and assemble:
• Meanwhile, put the butter and powdered sugar for the filling into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until smooth, then add the vanilla paste and beat again. Scrape down the sides and continue to mix until the vanilla is incorporated. Use a spatula to transfer the mixture to a disposable piping bag. Cut a ½ cm hole in the pointed end of the piping bag and pipe spirals of the icing on 10 of the biscuits, leaving ½cm between the filling and the outside edge of the biscuit. Carefully place an un-iced biscuit on top of an iced one and repeat with the remaining iced and un-iced biscuits - there will be 10 filled custard creams in total.
• Store in an airtight container in a cool spot for up to 5 days.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line 2-3 baking sheets with baking parchment. Put the butter and sugar in a food processor and whizz until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, and mix well. Sift together the flour and custard powder, then tip into the bowl and pulse to mix into a dough. Scrape out the food processor and work the chocolate in by hand.
• Roll the dough into balls a little smaller than a walnut, then place on the baking sheets, a little apart to allow for spreading. Press each biscuit down lightly with your fingers.
• Bake for 12-15 mins until lightly golden. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
