Butter Biscuit:

Ingredients:

1 1/4  stick of unsalted Butter    (I used Kirkland brand from Costco)

1 cup Corn flour

2 ½  cup Maida

Salt

Water (if needed)

1 cup Sugar

1 tbs Baking powder

                                                                                                                 
                                           

 Preparation:

Keep the butter in room temperature 1 hr before starting.

Mix the butter,salt,sugar and baking powder in a large bowl until u get a white  foamy paste .

Now add the flour and make the dough as for chapathi. Sprinkle water if u need.

Leave it for 1/2 hr. Then knead the dough and divide into 4 equal portions.

First take a portion of dough and flatten it on a clean surface with a rolling pin.

Make it thicker than chapathi. And cut out the shape which u need using a plastic knife.

                                                 

U can also add nuts toppings to the biscuits… Here I have added walnuts & almonds roasted.

When the biscuits are shaped place it in a baking sheet and bake in the oven at 350 F for 15 mins.

After 15 mins , u can see light brown color for the biscuits.Take out the biscuits and allow it to cool for a while.

Check the biscuits for taste , texture and make changes if any and repeat the same procedure for rest of the dough.

Store the biscuits in a air tight container.

                    

Note :

   1 stick of butter = 4 oz=113 gms 

   Increase in the butter quantity, spoils the texture of the biscuit.

  And check the correct temperature in ur first portion of dough. (In my preparation ,its exactly 15 mins without preheating)
