Peanut butter and pecan biscuits

Peanut butter and pecan biscuits are a delightful treat that combines the rich, creamy taste of peanut butter with the crunchy texture of pecans. These biscuits are perfect for a quick snack, dessert, or even to share with friends and family over a cup of tea or coffee.

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 Fat and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and peanut butter until smooth and well combined.
3. Add Sugar and Egg:
Add the brown sugar to the butter mixture and beat until light and fluffy. Then, add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until fully incorporated.
4. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
Gradually mix in the self-raising flour until the dough is well combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Add Pecans:
Fold in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Shape the Biscuits:
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion out dough balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each biscuit. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a fork or your hand.
7. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still appear soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
8. Cool:
Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve and Enjoy:
Once fully cooled, your peanut butter and pecan biscuits are ready to be enjoyed. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.

Tips:

- Make sure the butter is at room temperature to ensure it mixes well with the peanut butter and sugar.

- For a richer flavor, you can toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the dough.

- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle and shape.

- Use a cookie scoop for evenly sized biscuits.

- Line your baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

Enjoy the delicious combination of peanut butter and pecans in these easy-to-make biscuits. With a few simple tips, you'll be able to create a batch of perfectly baked, crunchy yet tender biscuits that everyone will love. Happy baking!
