Ingredients
- 125 g butter, softened
- 1 1/4 cups plain flour
- 2 tsp rosemary, finely chopped
- 12 black olives, pitted and finely chopped
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- A little ground black pepper
Method
- 1Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a tray with baking paper.
- 2Combine all of the ingredients in your food processor briefly, until a ball of dough has formed. Chill the dough for about 10 minutes as this makes it easier to handle.
- 3Roll the dough out on a piece of baking paper about 1/4-inch thick and use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds. Re-roll the odd bits of dough (handling as little as possible) and continue making the biscuits until all of the dough is used.
- 4Bake for about 15-17 minutes or until lightly coloured. Cool on a wire rack. These keep well in an airtight container.
Notes
When working with dough that has a high butter content, run your hands under cold water (and then dry them well) before handling the dough.
