Ingredients:

1/3 cup powdered sugar
55g
1 cup self-raising flour
150g
1/2 cup vanilla extract
72g
2 tsp cinnamon
6g
1 tsp rosemary
5g
2 tbsp orange zest
30g
2/3 cup butter
150g
1/4 cup sugar
50g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, self-raising flour, ground cinnamon, and chopped rosemary.
3. Cream Butter and Granulated Sugar: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer, until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add Orange Zest and Vanilla Extract: Add the orange zest and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
5. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until a dough forms. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
6. Shape Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
7. Flatten Biscuits: Gently flatten each ball with the palm of your hand or use the bottom of a glass to flatten them out slightly.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the biscuits are golden brown.
9. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, serve your Orange, Rosemary, and Cinnamon Biscuits with your favorite tea or coffee. Enjoy!

Tips:

- For the best flavor, use fresh rosemary and freshly grated orange zest.

- Make sure your butter is at room temperature before you start; it will cream more easily with the sugars.

- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to ensure the biscuits hold their shape and have a better texture.

- If you prefer a softer biscuit, reduce the baking time by a couple of minutes.

- You can freeze any leftover dough. Just slice and bake when you're ready for fresh biscuits.

Enjoy these delectable Orange, Rosemary, and Cinnamon Biscuits with a cup of tea, or share them with friends and family as a thoughtful, homemade gift. The unique combination of flavors will have everyone coming back for more. Whether for a special occasion or just an everyday treat, these biscuits are sure to please.
