Shrew berry biscuits

Yesterday I made these delicious biscuits and it's basically shortbread and rasberry jam!

125g butter, softened 
1/2 cup caster sugar 
1 tsp vanilla essence 
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flour 
Pinch of salt 
1 tsp baking powder 
1/2 cup raspberry jam
1 Tbsp water

1. Heat oven to 180* c. Line one baking tray with nonstick baking paper. Place butter, sugar and vanilla in a bowl and beat until thick and pale, then beat in egg.

2. Sift flour, salt, water and baking powder into the butter mixture and stir to combine. Turn mixture out onto a board and knead lightly to bring together as a firm dough. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill for 10 minutes.

3. on a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 3mm thick. Cut out any shape with a biscuit cutter and place on prepared baking tray. Cut out and remove smaller circles from the centre of half the biscuit circles.

4. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool. Sandwich biscuits together with raspberry jam and leave to set.

Here's how mine turned out. I also had a helper with me and she helped me soo much!

P.S I cut them in half so we had more bikkies.

My tasters enjoyed them too!
