1 egg, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
1/2 cup custard powder
80g white chocolate, roughly chopped

2. Using an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until well combined.
3. Sift flour and custard powder together over butter mixture. Add white chocolate and stir until mixture forms a soft dough.
4. Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls. Place on prepared trays, allowing room for spreading. Using a fork, press dough to flatten slightly. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Stand on trays for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve.
