Instructions
- Place the butter and sugar into a bowl and cream together until they are light and fluffy. Add the flour and the corn starch and stir together until it starts to form a dough. Continue to gently knead together with your hands until you have a lovely soft dough.
- Turn the dough out onto the countertop and form into a square or rectangle that has straight edges and is about 1/2 an inch / 1cm thick. Cut the dough into finger shaped biscuits and place onto a cookie tray.
Place into a preheated oven and cook for 20 – 30 minutes until they are a nice sandy colour. - Whilst the cookies are baking it is time to make the butterscotch sauce. In a saucepan place the butter, sugar and the cream and gently melt on a medium heat. Once the butter has melted and the sauce starts to bubble reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from the heat and stir thoroughly. Allow to cool a little before using.
- Once the cookies are baked remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Place the butterscotch sauce into a piping bag or bottle and drizzle a design over the cookies. Sprinkle with coarse salt and your cookies are ready to be devoured.
