It's no secret that our Soph loves a good cuppa, and we all know no cup of tea is complete without a biscuit for dunking.

So here's the recipe for her allspice cookies – they’re the perfect winter warmer!

Sophie’s Allspice cookies

Ingredients

Biscuits: 

  • 175g plain flour
  • 110g butter or margarine at room temperature
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 1 tsp allspice
  • 2 tsp cinnamon

Decoration: 

  • Extra caster sugar to dust
  • Royal icing
  • Silver balls

 

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 150C and lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Using a wooden spoon, beat the butter until it’s a soft consistency. Then beat in the sugar, followed by the sifted flour, allspice and cinnamon.
  3. Bring the mixture together using the wooden spoon, then finish off with your hands to form a paste.
  4. Transfer to a board lightly dusted with caster sugar and roll out to 3mm thick.
  5. Cut the biscuits using a circular cutter and arrange on the baking sheet.
  6. Place on the highest shelf in the oven for 30 minutes.
  7. Cool the biscuits on a wire rack, pipe on the royal icing in snowflake shapes and add some silver balls to finish.

Top tip: Add some orange zest to fruit ‘em up a bit!
