Sugar and Spice and All Things Nice!

Last week the children in Reception worked hard to bake lots of delicious biscuits in honour of World Book Day.
We sold the biscuits and thanks to the generosity of our fantastic Reception parents we managed to raise £41 to spend on new books for our book corners.


The recipe that we used is quick and simple (and tasty!), so if you enjoyed the biscuits then why not make some at home over the long weekend!


Recipe for Animal Biscuits
Ingredients:
175g 6oz butter, softened
75g 2half oz caster sugar
175g 6oz plain flour
75g 2half oz semolina
 
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 180'C/350'F
  2. Add butter and sugar to mixing bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until soft and creamy.
  3. Then stir in flour and semolina.
  4. Dust lightly with flour before kneading, roll out (£1 coin thick) and use animal cutters to make biscuits.
  5. Bake for approx. 10 mins – keep your eye on them.

Let us know how you get on and if you bake a few too many, teachers never say no to a biscuit or two!!

Once again, thank you for the generous donations to our biscuit making venture and allowing us to provide even more resources for the children!
