Has anyone got an easy recipe for biscuits that I can make with my grandchildren that can be used with biscuit cutters? Thankyou.

You could try my grandmas shortbread recipe. Take one food processor. Put in 250g softened butter & 3/4c icing sugar. Whiz for approx 30 seconds to cream it. Add 1/2c Cornflour & 1 and 3/4 cups plain flour. Whiz again for approx 30 seconds. It should be of the consistancy where it balls up the sides. If not add a wee bit more flour. Take out and roll out. Cut out shapes. Place on floured tray. Bake 20mins at 160

Freezing the dough for about 30mns makes it much easier to cut - esp in this humid weather.
Just bring it all together and put in gladwrap. Gently knead and roll out after taking out.

This is a good recipe for bulk biscuits, briefly written out but clear enough for you I think.
Biscuits 500g butter, 1 cup sugar, creamed. Add 1 tin condensed milk, 4 cups SR flour, 1 cup custard powder (or 5 cups flour). Mix to a smooth dough. Can be frozen as dough or cooked and frozen. Bake at 180 until golden. Use choc chips, 100s & 1000s, M&Ms or sugared jubes on top.

gingerbread with the melted butter, not creamed - quicker means kids don't get bored while the creaming is happening.
