Vanilla and Lemon Butter Biscuits

This is a variation of the classic Danish Vanilla butter biscuit and is straightforward to make at home.

Ingredients

350 g unsalted butter

170 g caster sugar
1 egg
400 g plain flour
1 tsp. vanilla sugar

Method

Place butter, vanilla and sugar in a bowl and cream until light. Add egg and mix evenly. Blend in flour until evenly mixed. Pipe on baking paper lined trays with a star nozzle. Bake in a 180º C preheated oven for approx. 12 minutes. Allow cooling before sandwiching two biscuits together with lemon buttercream. Drizzle some dark chocolate on top and allow cooling in the fridge before packing in closed container. Keep biscuits in a dry and cool place.

Note: Instead of lemon buttercream try flavours such as lime, orange, chocolate, coffee and mint.
