Baking biscuits................

Hello and Happy Wednesday!!
We are heading into the kitchen today..... so aprons on and let's go................

                                                                                   

Any guesses what's baking???.............

                                                                                 
                                                                               

Yep.....good old fashioned Jam Drops. I love these, as does my whole family, they are quick easy and tasty and I don't need much more than that. So.....here goes...........

                                                                       Jam Drops...........

115gms (4ozs) butter, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 teaspns honey
1 cup self raising flour
1/2 cup plain flour
1/4 cup cornflour (cornstarch)
Jam

                                                                                   


1. Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees.

2. Cream the butter and sugar together and when it's lovely and pale add your egg and the honey. Beat these in well.

3. Now sift in and fold through the flours.

4. Roll about a teaspoon size of mixture into a ball and pop onto a greased or lined baking tray. Then gently poke the centre with your finger. Once you've got all the mixture rolled into balls and onto the trays spoon  the jam of your choice (I usually use strawberry coz that's what lives in our fridge) into the little dents you've made.

5. Pop them into the oven for approx 12-15mins.

Done!!!

                                                                                     
                                             

Easy yes!? Please give these a go....your family will love you for it!!!!................

                                                                               

         

On that note I'm off to tidy up before going to collect my children from school so they can mess things up all over again.................

                                                                                 
                                                                       

Have a lovely day.........
