Ingredients

Biscuits
150 g plain flour plus 50 g extra if required
40 g self-raising flour
70 g custard powder
175 g butter at room temperature
1 tsp vanilla esence
80 g soft icing mixture (or icing sugar + 10g cornflour)
Filling
250 g icing sugar
40 g butter at room temperature
2 tsp vanilla esence
1/2 tsp lemon juice


Preparation

Biscuits

1.

Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Line two baking trays with baking paper.

2.

Place flours and custard powder in bowl and mix on speed 3 for 20-30 seconds to combine. Remove from bowl and set aside.

3.

Soften butter if required (40 seconds at 50°C on speed 4). Place butter, vanilla and icing mixture in bowl. Beat on speed 4 until pale and fluffy. Add flour mixture; mix on speed 1 until just combined, then beat on speed 4 until smooth. Add extra flour to form dough if required.

4.

Roll a rounded teaspoon of dough into a ball and place on prepared trays. Lightly press down with a fork. Repeat with remaining dough.

5.

Bake for 10-12 mins or until just browned. Stand for 5 mins then remove to a rack to cool completely.


Filling

6.

Place icing sugar and butter in bowl and mix on speed 4 until pale and well combined. Add vanilla and lemon juice; mix on speed 1 to combine. Beat on speed 4 until fluffy. Add a little extra lemon juice if needed to get the correct consistency. Sandwich biscuits together with filling.


Tip

This recipe is easily doubled, just use the spatula to scrape down the bowl as necessary.

You can make the icing filling with lime juice for a different, but equally delicious flavour. 

If you prefer to avoid the additives and yellow food colouring in ordinary custard powder, you can use Orgran custard powder instead, available at most health food stores. See http://www.orgran.com/products/170/ for more information.

Thanks so much for all your lovely comments! I'm glad everyone is enjoying making and eating these tasty biscuits Smile

Vet - I've never made them without the custard powder, sorry, so I'm not sure. I use the Orgran brand as it doesn't have the artificial colour in it that the standard one does. If you wanted to leave out the custard powder all together, I'd probably try substituting it with half plain flour and half corn flour, which would make it similar to a melting moment biscuit. Let me know how you go!
