Directions
-
In a bowl, whisk together the egg, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and rub it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the egg mixture and mix everything thoroughly for 4-5 minutes until a dough forms. Place the dough in a plastic bag or cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
-
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Divide the dough into several pieces of your desired size. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until they’re lightly golden. Let cool slightly before serving.
