Similar to a previous recipe. These are quite refreshing for the summer
Makes 24 - 26 Biscuits
150g Butter. cubed and to room temperature
100g Caster Sugar
Zest and Juice of 1 Lemon
Zest and Juice of 1 Lime
225g Plain Flour, plus extra for dusting
½ tsp Baking Powder
100g Caster Sugar
Zest and Juice of 1 Lemon
Zest and Juice of 1 Lime
225g Plain Flour, plus extra for dusting
½ tsp Baking Powder
Topping (optional)
250g Icing Sugar
4-5 tbsp Lemon and Lime Juice
1. Beat the butter and sugar together. Then add the lemon and lime juice and zest and give another mix. Finally add the plain flour and baking powder. It should be able to form a big ball. Wrap in cling film and put in the fridge for 30 minutes.
2. I personally divide it into two parts as it is easier to roll out. Roll out the dough on a floured surface. Use 6 or 7 cm cutters. Roll to just over ½cm and use cutter to create the round shape. Repeat with the other bit of dough. Place on a greaseproof papered tray. Put in the oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Place on wire rack to cool.
3. If you want to deck them with icing, mix all of the ingredients in a bowl. It should have thick consistency. It too thick use more juice and if too runny add more icing sugar. Place 1 teaspoon on each biscuit and spread. Leave to harden.
