How to Make Little Finger Biscuits

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of mashed potatoes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  4. Lightly flour a clean surface. Knead the dough gently for 30 seconds, until smooth.
  5. Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to 1/3 inch thickness.
  7. Beat one large egg. Brush the dough with the beaten egg, then use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into strips measuring ¾ inch x 3 inches.
  8. Transfer the strips to a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with 1 tablespoon of caraway seeds.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden brown and cooked through.
  10. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Store leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature.
