This recipe is the ideal life-saver for busy cooks. It is a good idea to make extra dough and store it, well wrapped, in the freezer.
ingredients
1/2 cup sweet butter, softened
4 tbsp superfine sugar, plus a little extra for sprinkling
finely grated rind of 2 oranges
1 1/2 cups All purpose flour
method
1. Preheat the oven to 190"C/375°F. Beat the butter and sugar together until they are soft and creamy. Beat in the orange rind. Gradually add the flour and gently pull the dough together to form a soft ball.
2. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface until about 1/2 inchthick. Cut it into fingers, sprinkle over a little extra sugar, prick with a fork and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the fingers are a light golden colour.
