Ingredients
1 cup plain flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup brown sugar (or ground)
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup crushed walnuts
15 walnut quarters
few drops vanilla essence
2-3 pinches salt
Method
Beat butter and sugar together till light. Sieve baking powder, salt and flour together. Add
flour, essence to butter and mix to form a lump.
Fold in crushed walnuts. Form small flattish rounds. Press in a walnut quarter on
top.Preheat oven.
Place some biscuits at a time on a baking sheet. Place far apart enough to allow the
biscuits to expand.
Bake at 150C for 6-7 minutes or till light brown. Cool well before removing. Store in airtight
jars. Repeat for rest.
Note:
Preferably use two baking sheets to allow quicker baking. One cools while the other
bakes.
By baking sheet I mean a non stick oven tray, a greased flat tray or oven proof paper.
Variation:
You may use almonds, or cashews instead of walnuts.
