These biscuits are deliciously crumbly and filled with gorgeously dried raspberries and pistachios, finished decadently with our Raspberry & Vanilla White Chocolate. They’re perfect for elevenses, with a cup of tea and a great flavour of Spring or Summer.
INGREDIENTS:
- 175g plain flour plus 1 tablespoon
- 175g softened unsalted butter
- 75g caster sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Handful chopped dried raspberries
- Handful chopped pistachios
- 1 x bar Seed and Bean Raspberry & Vanilla White Chocolate
METHOD:
- Start by preheating your oven to 160. Mix the butter, vanilla extract, sugar and flour (minus the tablespoon) until it starts to come together.
- Add the chopped dried raspberries and pistachios with the tablespoon of flour and mix in.
- Put the biscuit mixture into cling film and gently roll into a sausage shape.
- Place into a freezer for about 20 minutes.
- Cut into rounds and place on a tray with baking paper and put into the oven until slightly golden, around 20 minutes but every oven is different so keep an eye on them.
- Leave to cool completely, then melt your chocolate and either dip or spread onto your biscuit, embellishing with some of the dried raspberries and pistachios.
