   Taking a teaspoonful of the mixture, roll into balls and place onto a baking paper lined oven tray; press lightly with the back of a fork (see TIP below) and bake in a preheated oven at 180u00b0C/350u00b0-375u00b0F/4-5 gas mark for 10-12 minutes.

   Make the butter cream by beating the butter and icing sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy; add 1-2 drops of food colouring (if using) to make the cream pale pink; join the biscuits together with butter cream.

   TIP: When making the pattern with the fork, dip the fork in plain flour to prevent it sticking to the biscuit mixture.
