Can anyone help me with NIGELLA'S BISCUIT RECIPE please?

[Gillian76]

I have children off school and babysitting DHs 2 neices as well. Thought about baking biscuits this afternoon but then realised I had lent out my "How to Eat" :)

Please?

How to eat is the one I don't have, however Be-ro recipe if you can substitute is 225g self raising flour, 100g caster sugar, 100g butter or marg. 1 medium egg. Then as you do mix sugar and flour, rub in butter add egg to make dough, roll out cut favourite shapes in the oven at 180 for 10 mins.
I hope this helps.

From Dom. God. :
Butter cut out biscuits:
175g soft unsalted butter
200g caster sugar.
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
400g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1tsp salt
300g icing sugar, sieved and food colouring

Preheat oven 180 / gas 4

Cream sugar and butter til pale, almost moussy. Beat in eggs and vanilla.In another bowl mix flour, salt and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to butter and eggs, mix gently but surely ! If it's too sticky to roll add more flour sparingly. Halve the dough, form into fat discs, wrap in clingfilm and rest in fridge for 1 hr. Roll to 0.5cm thick. Cut shapes. Bake 8-12 mins. Makes 50-60 (I freeze half for another time - freezes well).
Hope this is the one you wanted. Have fun..
