SWEET OLIVE BISCUITS (COOKIES)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 deg Celsius. Line 2 oven trays with baking paper. Sift flours and icing sugar into bowl of food processor. Add butter and process until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
• Put mixture in large mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre, add olive oil, roughly chopped olives and zest. Mix with a flat-bladed knife, then use your hands to work the mixture until it forms a ball.
• Turn mixture onto a lightly floured board, knead into a ball, then divide in half. Roll each piece of dough into a log shape approximately 15-18cm long and 4-5cm in diameter. Wrap in baking paper and freeze for 20-25 minutes, or until firm.
• Remove paper from logs and cut each log into 16-18 slices. Put slices on prepared oven trays. Bake for 15-18 minutes our until lightly golden. Remove from oven and stand on a wire rack to cool.
