Glass window biscuits, also known as stained-glass cookies, are delightful treats that combine the deliciousness of traditional biscuits with a beautiful, colorful center. They are perfect for festive occasions, cookie swaps, or as a fun baking project with children. Here's a simple recipe to get you started.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) before starting to ensure it’s at the right temperature when you’re ready to bake.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This makes it easier to handle and helps the cookies keep their shape.
- Use a variety of colored hard candies to create a vibrant, stained-glass effect. Crush them into small pieces but not into a powder.
- When cutting out the center shapes, you can use smaller cookie cutters or a knife with a steady hand.
- Line your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Make sure to place the cookies with the candy centers a few inches apart on the baking sheet, as they may spread slightly during baking.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet before attempting to move them, as the melted candy centers will need time to harden.
With these tips in mind and a little creativity, you'll be able to bake a batch of stunning and delicious glass window biscuits that are sure to impress. Whether you're sharing them with friends and family or enjoying them yourself, these cookies are a wonderful way to celebrate any occasion.
