Recipe Information
Step by step guide to making Christmas biscuits
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4. Lightly grease 2 baking trays with a little of the margerine.
- Mix the flour, spices and sugar in a large bowl. Add the Stork margarine and rub in using your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add the beaten egg and mix into a stiff dough. Knead lightly and roll out on a floured surface to about 5mm thick.
- Cut into Christmasy shapes, using cutters or a template, and place onto the prepared baking trays. Press silver balls onto the edges of the biscuits. Bake for about 15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Carefully lift the biscuits off the baking trays and leave the biscuits to cool on a rack.
- When cold use the icing tubes to draw lines and patterns on the biscuits for decoration.
