Festive shortbread wreaths, a delightful homemade gift for the holidays or as tree decorations!
Ingredients:
  • 125g butter, softened
  • 55g caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 150g plain flour
  • 45g rice flour
  • Dried cranberries, to decorate
  • Thinly sliced pistachios, to decorate
  • Flaked natural almonds, to decorate
  • 1 Free Range Egg white*
  • 5.30 gm lemon juice
  • 240g icing sugar
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 160°C and prepare 2 baking trays by lining them with baking paper.
  • With an electric mixer, combine butter, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until light and creamy. Add flour and rice flour, mix until just combined. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth.
  • Roll the dough on a floured surface to create a 3mm-thick disc, then use a 7cm round fluted cutter to cut out discs. Use a 2cm round fluted cutter to cut a smaller disc from the center of each one, reshaping as needed. Transfer to the lined trays.
  • Bake the biscuits until they turn light golden, which should take about 10-12 minutes. Allow the biscuits to cool on the trays.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg white and lemon juice. Slowly add the icing sugar, stirring thoroughly until the mixture is smooth.
  • Transfer the icing into a piping bag equipped with a 2mm plain nozzle. Pipe the icing onto the biscuits, then garnish with cranberries, pistachios, and almonds. Allow the biscuits to sit for 30 minutes to firm up.
