Crumbly, forest flavoured, buttery bites of deliciousness! I was so happy with these biscuits, they will definitely be served up on some of my 2020 workshops! Just the smell transports you to the woods and gives you a huge, nourishing nature hug!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ingredients<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n
50g caster sugar<\/li>\r\n
125g butter<\/li>\r\n
2 tbsp chopped fresh pine, fir or spruce needles (chop them small!!)<\/li>\r\n
Simply beat your sugar and butter until light and fluffy, then mix in the pine needles, flour and a pinch of salt if your using unsalted butter!<\/li>\r\n
Bring together with your hands to form a dough and split into 12 pieces. Press into the holes of a nonstick muffin tin – this means you have lovely thick biscuits!<\/li>\r\n
Bake for 8 mins or until lightly golden.<\/li>\r\n
Leave to cool in the tin for around 10 mins, then turn the tin over onto a cooling rack and tap out the biscuits. Leave to cool completely.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u00a0I also mixed up icing with some dried pine needle powder I had in my cupboard! You could make a plain icing, or try one with lemon or lime instead!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
