biscuits without butter

[StainlessSteelCat]

I can make cakes, but biscuits are an unknown quantity to me! decided to make some rhw kids could decorate, have just realised I don't have much butter and can't face Rogers thought of taking three kids shopping twice in one day!

so, can I substitute stork? I know the taste will suffer, but are we talking a different taste/ texture that's still edible, or is more buttercream made with margarine territory?

If you are making a dough with other strong flavours you shouldn't notice much difference, but if you were planning to make something that relies on the butter for flavour it won't be nice!

I would use what butter you have, and make the rest of the quantity up in stork. Especially if it's stork sb as I find that leaves the finished biscuits softer than butter.

Not its not the same territory as butter cream made withmarg (according to my taste buds!)

thank you! in the end I made some with the last of the butter, and very yummy they are too! but will try again with stork and use lots of flavour, probably chocolate. well, cocoa powder.

I need to practice biscuits. I think my waist line is hoping for inedible results, rest of me wants delicious!
