I couldn’t resist whipping up a batch of my favourite biccies for Hallowe’en. These are so super easy! And I had these fun spooky icing eyes I’ve been wanting to use so I just had to make some.
The original recipe is here (click here) but I’ll quickly run over it here.
You just need:
2 cups Spelt or gluten-free flour
1 cup unrefined Icing sugar
6oz dairy-free spread
Spices to taste – in this version I used
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cloves
Pinch nutmeg
Preheat oven to 180 C. Mix the flour, icing sugar and spices together and then cream the spread in. Mix well until it forms a dough but try not to over mix. Pop in the fridge to chill for as long as you can wait! Then remove, sprinkle a little flour down on a clean surface and roll out to your desired thickness. Use biscuits cutters to cut in to shapes and then pop in the oven for 5 – 7 mins or until golden brown. Do keep an eye on them – especially if they’re thin!
Allow them to cool and then if you want to you can ice them – just mix icing sugar with a little water or non-dairy milk and then have some fun!
Enjoy Hallowe’en!
