Ghoolies & Ghosties Spiced Biscuits

Ingredients

200g/8oz plain flour

25g/1oz cornflour

75g/3oz caster sugar

175g/7oz butter

录 tsp. cinnamon powder

Method

Place the dry ingredients into a bowl. Cut the butter into the mixture and rub in.听 Initially this will make a crumbly mixture, but will eventually come together as a single piece of dough.

Flour a board or a worktop and turn the dough out. Knead gently and then roll out

You have three options at this point:

听Use a cutter to make the biscuits. Roll the dough into a log shape and cut into rounds approximately 1.5cm thick. Place the dough in a round 18cm/7 inch tin and pack down well

Whatever you decide, prick the dough with a fork and bake in the oven听at 180掳C/Gas Mark 4 until the shortbread takes on a very light golden colour.听 Cooking time will depend on the size of shortbread you decide to make and will take anything from 10 to 20 minutes.

Decorate with an assortment of halloween figures and use ready-made fondant icing to decorate. Great chance for kids to use their imagination.
