Directions:

  1. Place butter, sugar and treacle in a small saucepan over low heat, stir until the butter melts and sugar dissolves. Set aside for 10 minutes to cool slightly.
  2. Combine butter mixture and eggs in a large bowl. Sift combined remaining ingredients over the butter mixture.
  3. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until smooth. Shape into a disc and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour to rest.
  4. Preheat oven to 180 degrees, roll out dough to required thickness (eg 5mm thick) and make required shapes. Place shapes onto nonstick baking paper and bake for 5 minutes, or until golden.
  5. Let sit on trays for another 5 minutes before removing onto a wire rack to cool.
  6. Decorate as desired.
