Ingredients

  • 50 g Softened butter
  • 100 g Golden caster sugar
  • 250 g Mascarpone
  • 300 g Plain flour
To finish:
  • 150 g Lemon curd
  • Icing sugar

Instructions

  • Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
  • Add the softened butter and golden caster sugar into a large mixing bowl. Use a wooden spoon to beat it together until it becomes creamy.
  • Then beat in the mascarpone until it is well combined.
  • Stir in the flour, mix well until it resembles crumbs. Then get stuck in with your hands and press the dough together.
  • Divide the dough into 20 equal sized balls. Space them apart on the baking trays. Then flatten them slightly so they resemble a disc shape.
  • Use your thumb to make an imprint in the middle. Then place the trays into the fridge for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180℃
  • Bake the cookies for 22-25 minutes until they are pale golden.
  • Cool them on the trays for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, use a teaspoon to fill each dip with lemon curd. Finish by dusting with icing sugar.

    So quick and easy to make. A nice one to do with the kids. Very moorish, you won’t be able to stop at one
