- 1. Combine the flour, 30g icing sugar, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
2. Cream together the butter, egg yolk, 4 tbsps icing sugar and pandan extract. Add the butter mixture to the flour mixture and combine quickly with fingertips. If you need to add 1 tbsp water to bring the dough together then do so.
3. Wrap the dough in cling film and place in the fridge for 30 minutes.
4. Grease and line baking trays then roll your dough into 1 inch-sized balls and flatten them slightly.
5. Arrange the dough balls on your tray evenly spaced (they will spread as they cook).
6. Bake at 160 degrees C (gas mark 4) for 8-10 minutes then remove from the oven. Make "thumbrints" in the centre of the half-cooked biscuits with a small measuring spoon (not your actual thumb!). Return them to the oven and bake for a further 8 minutes.
7. Remove the biscuits from the oven and push in a little chocolate button or a couple of chocolate chips into the "thumbprint". Allow to cool thoroughly before taking them off the baking sheet.
* Notes from The Little Teochew:
~ I omitted Steps (6) and (7).
~ After arranging the dough balls at Step 5, I simply pressed the desired toppings onto each cookie (dough) ball, and sent them straight to the oven for baking. It worked out fine, although you won't get those adorable, pretty cracks in the cookies.
