Here's a recipe that I learnt during my primary school years.

Ingredients:

300 grs of self-rising flour, 100 grs of sugar, 100 grs of butter or margarine, 1 egg, milk (whatever you think necessary), a bit of vanilla essence.

Preparation:

First, mix the flour with the butter until it is sand-like, then add the sugar and mix. Make a hole in the middle of that mixture and add the egg, vanilla and milk (4 or 5 spoons). Knead the dough until you reach a point where it is neither too soft nor too bland. Spread it til it has 2 cm high. Cut in small circles. Place in the oven for 15 min aprox. or until they are light brown. Let it cool and serve.
