Raspberry Cream Biscuits Instructions
To make these biscuits, first you will need to preheat your own to 160˚C (140˚ fan-forced) and line your baking trays with baking paper.
After adding the butter, sugar and vanilla to a large bowl, beat with an electric mixer until it is light and fluffy.
Sift the plain flour and the custard powder before adding to the mixture.
Carefully mix with a wooden spoon until the ingredients are starting to combine. A soft dough should form.
Using a heaped tsp of dough, make 30 balls – when put together, you will end up with 15 biscuits.
Place the balls of dough onto prepared trays and lightly flatten with a fork dipped in flour. Complete until you have 30 biscuits, lightly flattened on the trays.
Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until golden in colour.
When finished, remove from oven, cool on trays for around 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the raspberry filling, which the butter in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and icing sugar and mix until well combined.
Stir through the raspberries until the icing is smooth.
Once the biscuits are cool, spread the icing on the flat side of one biscuit and then sandwich together with another biscuit. Repeat with remaining biscuits.
Store in the fridge for up to 7 days.
Serve as is or dusted with icing sugar if you wish.
Some people may not like the lumps of the raspberries in the cream. To avoid this, simple push the raspberries through a sieve and use the juice in the icing.
