Speculaas (Dutch Spiced Biscuit) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    200 g self raising flour
    125 g soft brown sugar
    2 tablespoons allspice
    1 pinch salt
    150 g chilled butter
    1 tablespoon milk
Preparation
    Combine the cake flour, brown sugar, all spice and salt.
    Cut butter into pieces and mix into the flour in a food processor.
    Add milk and you should now have a firm dough ball.
    Wrap the dough in clingfilm and allow to rest in a cool place for atleast 2 hours, but preferably for a day to draw out the spice flavour.
    Preheat the oven to 175 degrees celcius, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1cm thick.
    Place this onto a lined baking tray and bake the spiced biscuit in the oven for about 30 minutes until done.
    Cool the biscuit on a wire rack.
    To serve: Break the biscuit into pieces and serve with warm chocolate milk.
