Speculaas (dutch spice cookies)

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
200 grams Self raising flour
1½ tablespoon Spice mix of your choice; (see note below)
125 grams Soft brown sugar
125 grams Butter or margarine
2 tablespoons Milk; (40ml.)

Directions

Mix the flour, spices, sugar and butter together in a bowl with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.

Add the milk and stir it in then knead the dough lightly until a dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic and chill for 24 hours.

Alternatively, place all the ingredients except milk in a food processor and process until they resemble fine breadcrumbs. With the motor running, add the milk and process briefly until the mixture is moistened then remove from the processor and knead briefly. Chill as above.

Roll out the dough and shape with cookie cutters then place on greased and floured oven trays.

Bake at 150c. for about 20 minutes or until the speculaas are crisp and golden brown.

Cool on wire racks then store in airtight containers.
