Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 100 g Butter (3.5 oz), room temperature
  • 3 tbsp Honey (or 2 tbsp Golden Syrup for toffee flavour)
  • 2 tsp Vanilla powder (or Vanilla extract)

Dry Ingredients

  • 90 g Sugar (3.1 oz), white (½ cup)
  • 175 g Flour (6.1 oz) (1.4 cups), all-purpose
  • ½ tsp Baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) to ensure it’s at the perfect temperature for baking the cookies.
  2. Mix Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream the room-temperature butter with the sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, ensuring even sweetness throughout the dough.
  3. Add Remaining Ingredients: Incorporate the vanilla powder (or extract), baking powder, honey (or golden syrup), and flour into the butter and sugar mixture. Blend all ingredients together thoroughly to form a smooth dough.
  4. Divide Dough: Separate the dough into three equal portions to make handling and rolling easier.
  5. Roll Dough: Shape each portion into a roll and place them on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper, ensuring no sticking occurs.
  6. Space Dough Rolls: Leave ample space between each roll on the tray as the cookies will spread while baking. Place only two rolls per tray for best results.
  7. Flatten Rolls: Gently press down the dough rolls with your finger to slightly flatten them, which helps form the cookies’ shape.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the cookies turn golden brown, indicating they are perfectly cooked.
  9. Cut Diagonally: Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, carefully cut the rolls diagonally while still warm. This step is crucial as warm dough is easier to slice cleanly.
  10. Cool Down: Allow the cut cookies to cool completely on a wire rack or tray before serving to let them set and develop their full texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use golden syrup instead of honey to achieve a more pronounced toffee flavor.
  • Make sure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing and better dough consistency.
  • Cutting the cookies while warm is essential for clean slices; once cooled, the dough will harden and become difficult to cut.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to one week.
  • Adjust baking time slightly depending on your oven’s heat distribution to avoid overbaking.
