Christmas Sugar Biscuits/ PinWheel Biscuits. I tried this recipe for my little one. She wanted those swirls. These are basic sugar Biscuits they tasted awesome. For me they are great. I prepared this only for my darling dayghter. This made up the last week end. We both enjoyed together. These are buttery treats and they are a treat at any time. Both me and my darling daughter were so excited while making this. We could wait during the cooling times we were literally sitting beside the refrigerator door. We and the cookies together had a great time together and they vanished in minutes when they are done. Here goes the recipe…
These sugar cookies are a real delight they can be served as a anytime snack.
Christmas Sugar Biscuits/ PinWheel Biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 Cup All Purpose Flour /Maida
- ½ Cup Butter
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- ½ Cup Powdered Sugar
- 4 Drops Pink Food Color
- ½ Teaspoon Baking Soda
- 2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 Egg For Biscuit dough
- 1 Egg For Eggwash

- Add in Vanilla Extract. Blend until creamy. Add in the egg and blend them using a hand blender in low speed.
- In another mixing bowl add the All Purpose Flour, Baking Soda and Baking Powder. Sift the mixture for 3 times. Add this flour into the egg and butter mixture.
- Roll them into a dough. Divide the dough into two equal parts. Set one part aside. Add your favorite food colour in one ball.
- Knead them so that the color blends well into the dough. Now Wrap both the dough into a plastic wrap and leave it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes take them out. Flatten them lengthwise. Do not make it very thin.
- Place one flattened dough on top of the other and start rolling them.
- Roll them till the end. Chop both the edges
- Take one egg in a bowl. Beat them well. Brush the rolled dough with the egg
- Sprinkle the sugar sprinklers on the rolled dough on all sides. They stick to the dough.
- Wrap the dough in a plastic wrap and press them on all sides so that the sprinkles stick to them easily. Leave the wrapped dough in refrigerator for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes remove from the refrigerator. Remove the plastic wrapper. Chop them into small cookies. Preheat oven at 180 deg C for 10 minutes. Bake the cookies until thy start browning in the top at 180 deg C. I have baked for 20 minutes.
- Allow them to cool down completely.
- And that is how they are awesome.
Notes
- If you do not have the hand blender you can utilize the blender/Mixer with the whipping blade.
- The baking time differs between different ovens. So read your user manual carefully before you start baking.
- Kids would really love these cookie so its better to use organic colors and sprinklers.
