These Princess Crown Biscuits Are The Perfect Addition To A Birthday Party

Ingredients

• 225g unsalted butter, softened & cubed
• 1 cup caster sugar
• ½ tsp vanilla essence
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 450g plain flour, sifted
• 1 tsp McKenzie’s Baking Powder
• ½ tsp McKenzie’s Bi-Carb Soda
• Pinch of McKenzie’s Australian Natural Sea Salt Grinder (Fine Grind)
• 2 egg whites
• 2 tbs lemon juice
• 3 cups Pure Icing Sugar

Instructions

1. Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until pale and light.
2. Add vanilla essence and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
3. Sift together the flour, baking powder, Bi-Carb, and salt. Gradually add to the creamed mixture to form a dough. Wrap dough in cling film and refrigerate for an hour.
4. Preheat oven to 170°C. Line three oven trays with baking paper.
5. Lightly flour the work surface and roll out the dough evenly to a thickness of approximately 5mm. Using crown cookie cutters, cut out shapes from the dough and arrange on the prepared baking tray.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes on the middle shelf.
7. Allow the biscuits to cool completely before decorating.
8. TO MAKE ICING: Using an electric mixer, whisk egg whites with lemon juice until combined. Gradually add icing sugar on low speed until smooth. For coloured icing add a few drops of food colouring of your choice. Alternatively, use fondant instead of icing – just roll our fondant and cut out the shape using the same crown cookie cutter. Apply fondant to cooled biscuits with melted jam.
