Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• 2 cups all purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 2 teaspoons vanilla sugar (or granulated sugar), *plus more if desired

• 1/4 teaspoon fine salt

• 2 tablespoons Lyle's Golden Syrup

  • Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350F.  Prepare 2 half sheet pans with parchment or silpat liners.

2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a BeaterBlade attachment, cream the butter and granulated sugar.

3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, vanilla sugar, and salt; add to the stand mixer with the creamed butter/sugar mixture and mix to combine.

4. Add the golden syrup and mix again, just until combined. 

5. Divide dough into 4 equal portions; roll each portion into a 12-inch log.

6. Place two logs on each half sheet pan and flatten slightly.

7. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the logs spread and turn golden brown. *If desired, sprinkle each log with 1/2 teaspoon vanilla sugar halfway through baking.

8. Remove from oven and allow the cookie logs cool before transferring to a cutting board.

9. Using a serrated knife, cut each log in half once lengthwise, then width-wise every 1/2-inch or so.
