Doing a little autumnal bake is something that I have always wanted to do, but never got around to it. After all of the rainy day weekends, I thought it the perfect time to whip out the cookie cutters and make something that pairs gorgeously with a cup of tea. After a little Amazon search, we found >these< cute autumn themed cutters. I thought they were so sweet! Pumpkins, leaves, acorns, a hedgehog, an owl, and a fox amongst other things. These biscuits were lovely, but didn't last long enough. I found the recipe >here<.
What you will need:
140g butter
60g caster sugar
190g plain flour
1tsp cinnamon
1tsp mixed spice (we used a bit of ginger and nutmeg)
1. Mix the soft butter with caster sugar until you have a smooth paste. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees.
2. Sprinkle in the flour, cinnamon, and other spices. Stir until you have crumbs.
3. Next, work with your hands until you have a dough.
4. Roll out onto a floured service, about 1cm thick, and then cut with your cookie cutters.
5. Place on a baking tray and sprinkle with a little more sugar.
6. Bake for 15 minutes or until nice and golden.
7. Enjoy!
What a perfect rainy day treat and a super simple recipe to follow with minimal ingredients. Stick on a cosy film or tv series that you're enjoying. Light all the candles, and enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee.

Fabulous bake, Amber! It’s made me feel like doing some baking too. I have various shaped cookie cutters in my collection as they can be great to fit themes or seasons. Your biscuits look super yummy and aesthetically pleasing. Keep well and safe. :-) xx
