1
Put sugar and butter in a bowl and cream until light and fluffy (or until your arm really aches if having the food mixer on will wake the whole house!
2
).
3
Sift the flour and cinnamon into the bowl and mix to form a smooth dough.
4
Roll out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8in (3mm) thick.
5
Cut out rounds using a 2in cutter and place on a greased baking sheet.
6
Knead and reroll trimmings until you have no more dough left.
7
Dredge the biscuits with caster sugar and bake at gas mark 4/180degC/350degF for 8-9 minutes until just firm to the touch.
8
These biscuits do harden up as they cool - if you leave them to cook until they feel cooked enough you will end up with something which sounds just like a ceramic tile when you tap it against the worktop!
9
Leave to stand for a minute or two and then transfer to wire racks to cool.
