- 200 g of butter, softened
- 0.25 tbsp of paprika
- 3 tbsp of poppy seeds

Step 1
Place the butter in a bowl with the Parmesan, egg yolks and paprika. Using a wooden spoon, beat the mixture together until light and fluffy.Step 2
Add the flour and poppy seeds, then continue to mix together until it forms a smooth dough.Step 3
Tip the dough onto a lightly floured worktop then, using your hand, press the dough down to compact it so it becomes tight and smooth without any air pockets or cracks. Form the mixture into a log shape, wrap in cling film and place in the fridge for an hour.Step 4
When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas 4. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 18 thin slices, place on a non-stick baking tray and bake for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
