Ingredients

  • 100 g of butter
  • 2 tbsp of milk
  • 175 g of plain flour
  • 24 mints
  • 1 tsp of vanilla extract
  • 50 g of caster sugar

Method

  1. Step 1

    Whizz the flour and butter together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the milk, vanilla extract and sugar. Form into a ball then wrap in clingfilm and chill in the fridge for 45 minutes.
  2. Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 160oC/140oC fan/Gas 2. Roll out the dough between baking parchment until 0.3cm thick.
  3. Step 3

    Cut the dough into 12 triangles measuring 11 x 11 x 8cm, then cut a small triangle from the middle, leaving a 1cm border (children might need help; a template is also useful here). Make holes in the top 2 corners of the biscuits, then place the frames on a baking tray.
  4. Step 4

    Put two mints in the middle of each frame. Drop blue food colouring onto the mints in 4 of the biscuits, and red colouring on another 4. Bake for 12 minutes until golden and the sweets have melted. Swirl the mint centre halfway through for an even colour.
  5. Step 5

    Remove the biscuits from the oven. Leave to cool then get the kids to thread with coloured ribbon or string.
