Cook Time 10 minutes
Cooling dough time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 40 minutes
Servings 12 cookies

Ingredients

  • 113 g butter
  • 150 g sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 155 g plain flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 30 g Custard Powder
  • 90 g white chocolate chunks
  • 120 g custard cream biscuits few extra for decoration

Instructions

  • Roughly chop the white chocolate into uneven chunks and break the custard creams into rustic pieces.
  • Mix the softened butter and sugar until just combined.
  • Add the egg and vanilla and mix until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Whisk gently with a whisk.
  • Add to the wet mix and fold gently until just combined.
  • Fold in the white chocolate chunks and broken custard creams. Do not overmix or the dough will become dense and lose texture.
  • Chill the dough for 1–2 hours until firm. This helps control spread and improves structure when baking.
  • Preheat oven to 170°C (fan).
  • Scoop dough into even balls using an ice cream scoop and place on a lined tray, leaving space between each cookie. Bake 4-5 at a time for best results.
  • Decorate the cookies with remaining white chocolate chunks and some broken custard creams.
  • Bake for around 8 minutes until edges are set but centres still look soft.
  • Leave cookies on the tray for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a rack. They will continue to set as they cool.
  • Once completely cooled serve and enjoy!
