Ingredients

Biscuits

50g Light Soft Brown Sugar
50g Golden Caster Sugar
190g Self Raising Flour
100g Unsalted Butter, chilled
1 Medium Egg
30-35 Drops Foodie Flavours Coffee Flavouring

Instructions

Servings 16 / Prep Time 30 mins / Cook Time 15 mins

Biscuits

Mix together the sugars and flour in a mixing bowl.
Cut the butter into small chunks and add it to the bowl.
Rub the butter into the mixture using your fingertips until you have a breadcrumb consistency.
Slightly beat together the egg and coffee flavouring.
Make a well in the centre of the dry mixture and add the egg.
Mix together to form a ball of dough.
Divide the dough into 32 balls and place them onto a baking tray lined with either a silicone mat or non-stick baking paper, leaving a gap between each. You will probably need to do this in two batches.
Put the baking tray in a preheated oven at 180°C/160°C fan and bake for 12-15 mins.
Remove from the oven and leave the biscuits on the tray for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Buttercream

Soften the butter in the microwave for approx. 20 secs, being careful not to melt it.
With a handheld or stand mixer, beat the butter for 5 mins until pale and spreadable.
Add the icing sugar and beat again until combined.
Add the coffee flavouring. Beat the buttercream for 5 mins. If the buttercream is too stiff to pipe, add a little milk.
Pipe the buttercream onto the underside of half the biscuits.
Place the remaining biscuits on top, sandwich together and serve.
