Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Lightly flour the work surface.

Step 2

Put the flour, caster sugar, butter, egg and vanilla extract into a food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.

Step 3

Tip onto the lightly-floured work surface, roll into a ball, then wrap in cling film and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Step 4

Lightly flour the work surface again. Roll out the dough until it is approximately 5mm thick, then use a cutter to stamp out 6cm fluted circles, re-rolling the dough as you go.

Step 5

With a smaller cutter, stamp a 2cm circle from the middle of each larger circle.

Step 6

Put the rings on a greased, non-stick baking sheet and bake in the oven for 12 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for five minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the icing, sift the Tate & Lyle Icing Sugar into a large bowl and mix in enough hot water to make a thick, spreadable consistency. Divide the icing among smaller bowls and add a different colour food colouring to each.

Step 7

Spread a single colour over the top of one biscuit with a knife. Working quickly, drizzle a few lines over the iced biscuit in a contrasting colour, then pull a cocktail stick through the icing to feather it. Place on a rack to set.

Step 8

Repeat for all the biscuits, contrasting the colours as much as you can.

TOP TIP

If you really want to bring something to the party, make Celebration Whoopie Pies too; your guests will love them!

🍪 One cookie to rule them all…
During the visit to Comptoir, we came across a giant cookie that stopped us in our tracks. Think golden edges, gooey centre, and serious snack envy.

Light-as-air cream, golden pastry layers, and a dusting of sweetness – no wonder @comptoir_bakery trust Tate & Lyle Sugars to bring their bakes to life.
Matty certainly approves 👀
