Ingredients

  • 100 g Butter (3.5 oz), room temperature
  • 90 g Sugar (3.1 oz) (½ cup), white
  • 175 g Flour (6.1 oz) (1.4 cups), all-purpose
  • 2 tsp Vanilla powder or Vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp Baking powder
  • 3 tbsp Honey or 2 tbsp Golden Syrup (for toffee flavor)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 180°C (356℉).
  2. Step 2: Mix the butter and sugar together until combined and creamy.
  3. Step 3: Add the flour, vanilla, baking powder, and honey (or golden syrup) to the butter mixture. Blend all ingredients well to form a dough.
  4. Step 4: Divide the dough into three equal parts.
  5. Step 5: Shape each part into a roll and place them on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Leave enough space between rolls, as the cookies will spread during baking.
  6. Step 6: Gently flatten each roll with your finger.
  7. Step 7: Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes until golden.
  8. Step 8: Immediately after removing from the oven, carefully cut the rolls diagonally while still warm.
  9. Step 9: Allow the cookies to cool completely before serving. Enjoy!

Tips & Variations

  • For a richer toffee flavor, use golden syrup instead of honey.
  • If you prefer softer cookies, reduce baking time by 1-2 minutes.
  • Add chopped nuts or chocolate chips into the dough for extra texture and flavor.

Storage

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. To refresh their crispness, warm slightly in a low oven for a few minutes before serving.

How to Serve

The image shows a pile of golden brown, rectangular baked bars with a slightly crumbly texture, laid casually on a sheet of white parchment paper placed on a white marbled surface. Each bar is about one layer thick, with visible rough edges and some cracks on the top, indicating a crunchy exterior and a soft inside. The bars vary slightly in size but are generally long and flat. In the top left corner, a white cup with dark blue vertical stripes is partially visible, adding a touch of contrast to the scene. The overall look is warm and inviting, perfect for a snack. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use vanilla extract instead of vanilla powder?

Yes, vanilla extract works well as a substitute. Use about 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract in place of 2 teaspoons of vanilla powder.

What is the best way to cut the cookies without breaking them?

Cut the cookie rolls immediately after baking while they are still warm. This allows for clean diagonal slices without cracking or breaking.

  • 2 tsp Vanilla powder (or vanilla extract)
  • ½ tsp Baking powder
  • 3 tbsp Honey (or 2 tbsp Golden Syrup for toffee flavour)

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 180°C (356℉) to ensure it reaches the right temperature before baking the cookies.

  3. Add Remaining Ingredients: Add the flour, vanilla powder, baking powder, and honey or golden syrup to the butter mixture. Blend all ingredients well until a uniform dough forms.
  4. Divide Dough: Divide the dough evenly into three parts to manage the baking process better and allow enough space for spreading.
  5. Shape Rolls: Shape each portion of dough into a roll and place them on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Remember to leave enough space between rolls as they spread during baking.
  6. Flatten Rolls: Gently flatten each dough roll with your finger to prepare them for even baking.
  7. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes or until they turn golden brown.
  8. Cut Warm: Immediately after removing from the oven, carefully cut the rolls diagonally while the dough is still warm to create individual cookies.
  9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing to maintain their perfect texture.
