Pandan Thumbprint Biscuits
- 1 1/4 cups plain flour sifted
- 1 tablespoon egg replacer such as Allergycare
- 1/4 cup icing sugar + 4 extra tbsp's icing sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon water
- 6 tablespoons butter at room temperature
- 24 chocolate Buttons, plus more for munching
- 1 teaspoon pandan extract
- Combine the flour, egg replacer, 1/4 cup icing sugar, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- Cream together the butter, 4 tbsp's icing sugar and pandan extract. Add the butter mixture to the flour mixture and combine quickly with cold hands. If you need to add 1 tbsp water to bring the dough together then do so.
- Wrap the Hulk lookin' dough in cling film (plastic wrap) and place in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Cram as many chocolate buttons into your mouth as you possibly can.
- Grease and line baking trays (I used two) then roll your dough into 1 inch-sized balls and flatten them slightly.
- Arrange the dough balls on your tray evenly spaced (they will spread as they cook).
- Bake at 160 degrees C (gas mark 4) for 8-10 minutes then remove from the oven. Make 'thumbrints' in the centre of the half-cooked biscuits with a spoon (not your actual thumb!) I used a rounded mini measuring spoon. Return them to the oven and bake for a further 8 minutes.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and push in a little chocolate button or a couple of chocolate chips into the 'thumbprint'. Allow to cool thoroughly before taking them off the baking sheet.
