Ingredients

  • 125 g butter, softened
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 1 egg, at room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
  • 1/2 cup custard powder
  • 80 g white chocolate, roughly chopped

Method

  • Preheat oven to 180C and line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
  • Using an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and beat until well combined.
  • Sift flour and custard powder together over butter mixture. Add white chocolate and stir until mixture forms a soft dough.
  • Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls and place on prepared trays, allowing room for spreading. Using a fork, press dough to flatten slightly.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Stand on trays for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool.
