Ingredients

  • 120 gm butter
  • 60 gm sugar
  • 120 gm plain flour
  • 60 gm semolina or cornflour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C, 360 F or Gas mark 4

  • Add the plain flour and semolina or cornflour. Mix lightly until it just comes together.
  • Roll out to 1/2 cm thick and cut into cookie shapes. Use a fork to add markings to each cookie.
