Ingredients

  • 75 g Caster sugar
  • 2 Egg yolks
  • 90 g Salted butter (Softened)
  • Lemon zest (A little, grated)
  • 125 g Plain flour
  • Salt (A pinch)
  • 0.67 tsp Baking powder

Steps

  1. 1

    Mix the two egg yolks with the caster sugar until combined.

  2. 2

    Add the softened salted butter and a little grated lemon zest, then mix until incorporated.

  3. 3

    Combine the plain flour with a pinch of salt and the baking powder. Add this flour mixture to the butter mixture and combine to form a dough.

  4. 4

    Shape the dough into a sausage approximately 4 cm in diameter.

  5. 5

    Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour.

  7. 7

    Place the biscuit rounds on a baking tray or in a small muffin tin.

  8. 8

    Bake at 170°C for approximately 15–20 minutes, until golden.

Notes

The source gives two different dough-diameter measurements: the primary post description specifies approximately 4 cm, while the transcript says approximately 5 cm. The primary description was followed. The description does not specify an exact amount of lemon zest or the number of biscuits produced.
