Method:

• Cream the butter and sugar in a stand mixer until light and fluffy.
• Add the vanilla extract and one egg at a time and mix well.
• Add salt and baking powder.
• Slowly add the flour and mix to form a ball of dough.
• Wrap in cling wrap and leave in the fridge overnight.
• Take it out the next morning and let it sit on the counter for the rest of the day (I only baked it the following evening).
• This is a very solid and stiff dough, do not worry. you did nothing wrong.
• When ready, cut the ball of dough into 1″ thick slices and roll out on a lightly floured surface. with a rolling pin and cut into petty shapes and decorate.
• I painted each biscuit with egg wash (1 egg mixed with a little milk) and then added M&M’s as decoration (colorful), but use your own imagination and have fun with the decoration.
• Bake at 180C (375F) until golden brown for ±12 minutes.
• Let them cool slightly before removing from the baking tray.
• Leave on a cooling rack until completely cold and store in an airtight container.
