Ingredients

175 gram butter, at room temperature

1/2 cup icing sugar

1 cup self-raising flour

1/2 cup plain flour

1/2 cup custard powder

2 tablespoon milk

100 gram white chocolate melts, melted

silver cachous, to decorate

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan forced. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar in a small bowl until light and creamy.

2.Sift flours and custard powder into bowl. Add milk. Using a round-bladed knife, mix ingredients until combined.

3.Roll dough out between sheets of baking paper until 7mm thick. Using a 6cm bell-shaped pastry cutter, cut pastry into bells. Re-roll remaining pastry; cut into bells. Place on prepared trays.

4.Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden underneath (they will be pale on top). Cool on trays (biscuits will firm). Pipe chocolate onto biscuits. Arrange cachous on chocolate. Set.

If weather is hot, chill biscuits for 20 minutes before baking. Stay safe: (for litttlies) Decorate with rainbow choc chips instead of cachous.
