Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
1 cup sugar
200g
1 egg
50g
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2g
1 cup self-raising flour
150g
1/2 cup vanilla extract
72g
1/3 cup white chocolate
72g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.
3. Add the Egg and Vanilla Extract:
Beat in the egg until well combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix until just incorporated.
4. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour and custard powder.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.
6. Fold in White Chocolate:
Gently fold in the chopped white chocolate pieces until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Shape the Biscuits:
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You can flatten each scoop slightly with the back of a spoon or your palm for even baking.
8. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. The centers may still look a bit soft, but they will set as they cool.
9. Cool:
Let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Enjoy:
Serve your delicious custard powder biscuits with a cup of tea or coffee. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh.

Tips:

- Ensure that the butter is at room temperature before you start mixing. This will help in achieving a smooth and creamy mixture.

- Use good quality vanilla extract and white chocolate for the best flavor.

- For even baking, try to make sure the dough balls are the same size before placing them on the baking sheet.

- Chilling the dough before baking can help prevent the biscuits from spreading too much.

- If you want your biscuits to be softer, bake them for a slightly shorter time. For crisper biscuits, leave them in the oven a bit longer.

Custard powder biscuits are a simple yet delicious treat that can be enjoyed at any time. With this recipe and these tips, you can create a perfect batch that will wow your friends and family. Whether you're enjoying them with a cup of tea or as a midday snack, these biscuits are sure to become a favorite in your household.
