Wootjacks

These are really good biscuits. They should be. They have a lot of sugar in them. But then, sometimes you just really want a sweet buttery biscuit.

Wootjacks

4oz Oats

1tblsp Plain flour sifted

6oz Caster sugar

4oz Butter

1 egg beaten

Vanilla essence

 

Line several baking sheets with baking paper.

Heat oven to Gas mark 3.

Mix oats, flour and sugar together.

Melt the butter and while hot pour it over the dry ingredients.

Stir well until mixed.

Make a well in the centre.

Add the beaten egg and vanilla essence.

Mix thoroughly.

Drop teaspoons of mix on to the baking sheets well spaced out.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes (my oven not very good so I did mine for 20 mins - they need to be turning golden at the edges)
