vanilla cookies
1 Preheat the oven to 170ºC/325ºF/Gas Mark 3.
2 Place the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add the butter and rub together with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Make a hollow in the centre and pour in the beaten egg, golden syrup and vanilla extract. Mix together well, until you have a ball of dough.
3 Place the dough in a plastic bag and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
4 Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to 5mm (¹⁄5in) thick and stamp out the cookies, using your chosen cutters. If you are using a template, cut around the template with a knife for each cookie.
If you are short of time you can buy plain cookies from the supermarket, ready to be decorated
5 Lightly knead and re-roll the trimmings together again to use up all the dough. Place the cookies on greased baking sheets.
6 Bake for 12–15 minutes until lightly coloured and firm but not crisp. Leave on the tray for two minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
