Are you the next Bake Off winner?

Ingredients • 100 g/3½oz unsalted butter, softened, plus extra for greasing • 100 g/3½oz golden caster sugar • 1 free-range egg, lightly beaten • 1 unwaxed orange, finely grated zest only • 50 g/1¾oz milk chocolate, cut into small pieces • 275 g/9¼oz plain flour

Method 1. Preheat the oven to 180 C/160 C Fan/Gas 4. Grease two baking trays with a little butter. 2. Put the butter in a bowl and beat with a wooden spoon or electric hand whisk until soft. Add the sugar and beat again until very creamy. Beat in the egg until combined. 3. Stir in the orange zest, chocolate and flour. Use your hands to make the dough into a ball. 4. Divide the dough into quarters and roll each quarter into a sausage shape, about 10 cm/4 inches long and 4 cm/1½ inches wide. Slice each log into 6 equal pieces; you will have a total of 24 biscuits. Make sure each biscuit is a circle shape, then press it down slightly with your hands and place it on the prepared baking trays. 5. Bake for 10– 12 minutes, or until golden-brown around the edges. Use a palette knife to lift the biscuits onto a cooling rack and leave to cool.

Recipe Tips Here are some tips to help you cook safely: To grate the orange, hold the handle of the grater with one hand then push the orange downwards over the grater ‘teeth’. Always keep fingers away from the grater ‘teeth’, as they are very sharp. Always ask a grown up to supervise you when using knives and, if possible, break up the chocolate by hand instead. Ask a grown up to transfer food to and from the oven and make sure that they wear oven gloves! Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before handling, as they will be very hot from the oven. If a bit of shell goes into the bowl when cracking the egg, fish it out with the egg shell or a teaspoon. Make sure to cream the butter and sugar together really well at the beginning, adding air to the mixture to help to keep the biscuits light and crisp. Chocolate and orange is a winning flavour combination, but you could also add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or mixed spice in place of the orange zest. Swap the chocolate for dried fruit, for another twist. You’re in charge of your own creation!

See you tomorrow!
