Ingredients
-
1 cup/150 g
all-purpose/plain flour
-
1/8 tsp salt
-
6 tbsp butter, cut up
-
4 tbsp light single cream
-
1/3
cup/50 g
confectioners'/icing
sugar, to dust
PINK FILLING:
-
1 cup/150 g
confectioners'/icing sugar
-
1 tbsp
butter, softened
-
1 tbsp light single cream
-
1/2 tsp
vanilla
extract/essence
-
few drops red food coloring
Method:
-
Sift the flour
and salt into a large bowl. Use a pastry blender
to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles
coarse crumbs.
-
Mix in the cream. Press the dough
into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate
for 30 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to
375°F/190°C/gas 3. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
-
Roll out the dough on a lightly
floured surface to a thickness of 1/8 inch (3 mm). Use a 1 1/2-inch (4-cm) cookie cutter to cut out the
cookies.
-
Gather the dough scraps, re-roll, and
continue cutting out cookies until all the dough is
used. Use a spatula to transfer the cookies to the
cookie sheet, spacing them
1 1/2
inches (4 cm)
apart.
-
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until just golden
at the edges. Transfer to racks to cool.
-
Pink Filling: Mix the confectioners' sugar, butter, cream,
vanilla, and red food coloring in a small bowl.
-
Stick the cookies together in pairs with the
filling. Dust with the confectioners' sugar.
