I made these biscuits for my son's playgroup break up party. I just used a basic butter biscuit recipe, but you could use any recipe you like. (Shortbread would be a nice one for adults). This butter biscuit recipe is in the CWA cookbook.
375gr flour
250gr butter
185gr sugar (I used caster sugar)
1 egg (beaten)
1/4 tsp baking powder
Mix flour, sugar and baking powder together. Rub in butter. Add egg and mix in. Roll out very thin and cut into shapes. Bake in oven at 350F/180C until a light golden brown.
Icing:
I admit I didn't make any measurements here.
Icing sugar
Food colouring
Water
Vanilla essence (optional)
Cachous or other decorations.
Mix enough water with icing sugar to make a thick paste. Add food colouring. Spread onto cold biscuits and decorate. Allow to set.
