Ingredients
180g butter
90g caster sugar
270g flour
Method
Cream the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl, add the sieved flour and continue to mix to a firm dough.
Roll the mixture into a log. Cover in parchment paper and twist the ends like a Christmas cracker. Chill in the fridge for a few hours, preferably overnight.
Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas Mark 4.
Remove the baking paper from the chilled dough and cut into 1cm thick cookies. Bake on a parchment lined baking tray, cook in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and dredge lightly with icing sugar.
