Ingredients
Buttercream Filling
- 125gr soft butter
- 1 1/4cup icing sugar
- 1teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1/2teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- First off, heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and prepare an oven safe baking tray with non stick spray.
- Beat the butter, icing sugar, vanilla essence and zest until light and creamy.
- Sift the flour and cornflour and mix it with the butter mixture until combined into a manageable dough.
- You can now transfer your cookie dough to a piping bag if you wish. I used an old cookie press to create pretty shapes with my dough – you can also roll it out and use certain cookie cutters if you want.
- Be sure to place the cookies about 1 cm apart on the baking tray.
- Bake for 10 – 15 minutes until golden. Leave to cool.
- For the buttercream filling; Beat the butter, icing sugar, vanilla essence and cinnamon until fluffy and creamy. You can add a little milk if the icing is still too thick.
- Spread the cookies with buttercream filling and serve with tea.
