What You’ll Need

Ingredient Quantity
Dough Pro Butter Biscuit Mix 500 g
Butter or Margarine 250 g
Vanilla Essence 5 ml / 1 tsp

Method

1. Prepare the butter or margarine

Make sure the butter or margarine is at room temperature before mixing. This helps it combine evenly with the biscuit mix and creates a smoother dough.


2. Mix the ingredients

Place the Dough Pro Butter Biscuit Mix into a mixing bowl.

Add the softened butter or margarine and vanilla essence.

Mix on slow speed for approximately 5 minutes, or until the biscuit dough comes together.


3. Roll and cut

Remove the dough from the mixing bowl and place it onto a lightly floured surface.

Flatten or roll out the dough to your preferred thickness, then cut into shapes using your desired cookie cutter.


4. Place onto a baking tray

Place the biscuit or cookie shapes onto a baking tray, leaving a small space between each piece.


5. Bake until golden

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for approximately 12 minutes, or until the biscuits are baked through and lightly golden.

Allow to cool before serving or packing.


Baker’s Tips

Use room-temperature butter or margarine for easier mixing and a smoother biscuit dough.

For a richer flavour, use butter. For a more cost-effective option, margarine can also be used.

Do not overbake the biscuits. Remove them once they are lightly golden, as they will continue to firm up while cooling.

For a more premium biscuit, add chocolate chips, chopped pecan nuts, cashews, almonds, sprinkles or a light drizzle of chocolate after baking.


Flavour & Add-In Ideas

This mix is versatile and can be used to create different biscuit varieties.

Try adding:

  • Chocolate chips
  • Pecan nuts
  • Cashew nuts
  • Almond pieces
  • Desiccated coconut
  • Sprinkles

  • Melted chocolate drizzle after baking

Serving Ideas

They are also ideal for gift boxes, party packs, bakery displays, lunchbox treats and decorated biscuit ranges.

Allow biscuits to cool completely before storing.
