we have just got back from an idyllic week in corfu. feeling a bit sad and missing the sun, the sea, the feta cheese, sardines, olives, sausages, aubergines, courgettes, tomatoes and chicken kebabs, elsie and i decided to cheer ourselves up by trying a recipe for biscuits that the woman from our favourite bakery had given us on our last day. so thanks to rosie near the town of gastouri. efharisto!
35g butter30g caster sugar - i used sugar that has a vanilla pod stored in it or you could add a drop of vanilla extract
1 egg, beaten
85g sifted self raising flour
a few handfuls of dark chocolate chips or broken pieces
25g chopped brazil nuts
pinch of salt
preheat the oven at 180 c/ 350 f gas mark 4
grease a large baking tray
cream the butter and sugar in a bowl and then beat in the egg. fold the sifted flour into the mixture and beat well. use a teaspoon to spoon small heaps onto the tray, spaced well apart. bake for 10-15 minutes and enjoy hot while the chocolate is still melted or leave to cool and eat at the end of a long greek breakfast with a really strong coffee.
