Put the butter in a bowl and beat it with electric beaters until soft and creamy. Beat in the sugar, then the egg and vanilla, and finally the flour to make a dough. If the dough feels a bit sticky, add a little bit more flour and knead it in.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Pull pieces off the dough and roll them out to about the thickness of two \u00a31 coins on a floured surface. The easiest way to do this with small children is to roll the mixture out on a baking mat. Cut out shapes using a 9cm biscuit cutter, or a use the rim of a small glass and peel away the leftover dough around the edges. Press some clean toys gently into the biscuits, making sure you make enough of a mark without going all the way through. Re-roll off-cuts and repeat.<\/li>\n<li>Transfer the whole mat or the individual biscuits to the baking sheet and bake for 8-10 mins or until the edges are just brown. Leave to cool for 5 mins, then serve.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recipe courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/bbcgoodfood.com\">BBC GoodFood.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone loves an easy recipe, and this is one of them!\u00a0 Get creative with this recipe, and even top them with your own designs.
