NGREDIENTS

FOR THE BISCUITS
- 225 g plain flour, plus extra to dust
- 50 g unsalted butter, softened
- 75 g caster sugar
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1 medium egg
- 25 g golden syrup
TO DECORATE
- Edible Glitter ( I got this from the bakery section at tesco)
- Edible Glue
- icing sugar, to dust
- Dress shaped cutters, I used heart and dress shapes
- fondant icing in assorted colours, (any is up to you)
- icing pens (you can get these from the local supermarket)

METHOD:

STEP 1:
To make the biscuits, in a food processor pulse the flour, butter, sugar and spices until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the egg, syrup and 2tsp cold water and whizz until the dough just clumps together. If you don’t have a food processor, rub the butter into the flour and spices using your fingertips; stir in the sugar, followed by the egg and syrup to make a dough. Tip on to a work surface and shape into a disc. Wrap and chill for 45min.

STEP 2:
Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4 and line 2 large baking sheets with baking parchment. Lightly flour a work surface and roll out dough to 3mm thick. Stamp out shapes, rerolling trimmings as needed. Transfer to lined sheets, spacing apart. Chill for 15min, to firm up.

STEP 3:
Bake for 14min, or until the edges are lightly golden. Leave to cool on the sheets for 5min, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

STEP 4:
To decorate, lightly dust a work surface with icing sugar and roll out your chosen colours of sugarpaste/fondant icing until 2mm thick. Using the same cutters as your biscuits, stamp out matching numbers of icing in your chosen colours.

STEP 5:
Add the edible glue to the biscuit or alternatively brush the biscuits very lightly with water, then gently stick on the icing. Use icing pens to add more detail, if you like

STEP 6 :
ENJOY !!!!
