Preheat the oven to 180o C/160o C fan oven/350oF/Gas mark 4.
Place all the ingredients in a food processor and whiz until the mixture almost comes together and resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Then tip onto the work surface and bring it together with your hands.
If you are not using a food processor, rub the butter into the combined flour and sugar in a bowl and bring together with your hands.
Sprinkle your work surface with a little flour (brown or white) and roll out the dough until it is about 5mm/ ¼in thick.
Using a biscuit cutter, cut into whatever shapes you like. Transfer onto a baking tray (no need to grease or line) and bake in the oven for 6-10 minutes depending on the size, or until they are pale golden and feel firm on top.
Remove carefully and cool on a wire rack.
