Little Ducky Biscuits

Using a basic biscuit recipe and the new cutter set I received for Christmas, I decided to use the Duck shape and have some fun with icing too! 
They are sooo cute!


Ingredients:
100g Butter
100g Caster Sugar
175g Plain Flour
1 Egg Yolk
Water
Icing Sugar
Yellow Food Colouring
Black writing Icing.

Oven- 160'C

Mix the butter, sugar and flour till like breadcrumbs, then add the egg.
Mix till a dough, then put it into the fridge for 15 minutes (may as well wash up while you wait).
On a floured surface, roll out the dough and cut out the duck shapes.
Place them carefully onto a floured baking sheet on your tray and bake for 20 mins.
Leave to cool.

Make up your icing by adding around 4 tablespoons of Icing Sugar to a bowl and slowly adding water till it is a spreadable consistency. Also add your colouring, not too much, just a drop.
Use a knife to carefully spread the yellow icing onto your biscuits. Leave to set.
Using the writing icing, go around the outline of your biscuits and use a dollop for the eye.
Again, leave to set then enjoy!
