Instructions easy wholemeal flour cookies
- To prepare these cookies I used unsalted butter made by Lurpak.
- In a bowl, using a whisk, mix vigorously soft butter to make it lighter.
- Then add powdered sugar and half a teaspoon of salt and stir again to make them incorporate. As you have noticed in the ingredients I used a mix of white powdered sugar and raw cane powdered sugar but you can only use the white one for the same amazing result.
- At this point add liquid honey and stir well.
- Now sift 200 g of wholemeal flour and half a teaspoon of baking powder and add them to the mix of butter and sugar. Stir in with a whisk until the batter begins to make clumps. At this point add milk. If you like at this moment you can also add some chocolate chips, cinnamon or vanilla extract but I choose classic and original taste.
- Knead briefly by hand until you have a compact but soft dough, similar to that of shortcrust pastry.

Wholemeal honey biscuits – baking
- Dust the work surface with some flour. Roll out the dough using a rolling pin to a thickness of about half a centimeter. Using a thin-rimmed glass or cookie cutter, cut out circles.
- Place the wholemeal shortbread cookies on the baking pan covered with baking paper or with the silicone baking mat.
- Mix the scraps of the dough and roll out again to create more cookies. Use all the prepared dough. I managed to get 15 medium cookies.
- Use a toothpick to prick each cookie and to create a decoration similar to that of the Digestive biscuits.
- Bake in a preheated static oven at 170 ° C for about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before serving. These cookies harden once cooled.
