Main Ingredients

300 grams (10.5 ounces) all-purpose flour
250 grams (8.8 ounces) granulated sugar
6 large eggs
150 grams (5.3 ounces) unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon baking powder
4-5 drops of pink food coloring

Optional Ingredients

A pinch of salt
Fresh edible rose petals for decoration

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Batter

Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. This will take about 5-7 minutes. Gradually add the melted butter and vanilla extract while continuing to whisk.

Next, sift together flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Carefully fold this dry mixture into your egg mixture, being cautious not to deflate the batter.

To create that signature pink hue, add pink food coloring drops and gently mix until you achieve your desired shade. The batter should be smooth and airy.

Step 2

Bake the Biscuit

Pour the batter into a greased baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, remove the biscuit from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. This cooling process is crucial as it helps form a nice crust.

Step 3

Serve and Enjoy

Once your biscuit is completely cooled, slice it into squares or rectangles. For an extra touch of class, consider serving it with fresh edible rose petals on top.

This biscuit pairs wonderfully with champagne or can be enjoyed on its own. Remember, its light and floral texture will surely make your guests smile.

Step 4

Storage Tips

If you have any leftovers, keep them stored in an airtight container at room temperature. The biscuit stays fresh for several days without losing its delightful flavor and aroma.

Enjoy your charming pink biscuit as a treat for yourself or impress your friends at a gathering!
