Directions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the egg, sugar (80g), baking powder (1 tsp), salt (1 tsp), and vanilla essence. Mix well until smooth. Gradually add clarified butter (40ml) while mixing. Add flour (180-200g) in increments, stirring until a dough begins to form. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. Knead the dough with your hands until smooth and pliable.
-
Divide the dough into small, even-sized balls. Roll each ball in sugar to coat. Arrange the sugar-coated balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Use a slotted spoon or similar utensil to gently press each ball flat. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
