Recipe:

​

1.         Beat together butter and sugar with an electric mixer until it's light and well mixed together.

​

2.         Beat in the egg and the treacle, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through to ensure it's all mixed in evenly.

​

3.         Mix together the flour, bicarb, spices and salt in a separate bowl.

​

4.         Add this mixture to the buttery mix a couple of tablespoons at a time, scraping down the bowl with the spatula frequently.

​

5.         Once it's all mixed together, wrap it in clingfilm and leave in the fridge to rest overnight.

​

6.         Preheat the oven to 170 fan.

​

7.         Take the dough out of the fridge about 10 minutes before you start to roll it out.

​

8.         Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it's about 4mm thick.

​

9.         Cut out biscuits with your desired cutters and place onto lined baking trays.

​

10.     Bake for about 10-15 minutes.

​

11.     Leave to cool for about 10 minutes, if you can bear to wait, then enjoy with a delicious hot drink.
