A copy of a classic children's favorite cookie in the UK.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter salted, good quality, softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour good quality, sifted
  • 3 cups confectioner’s sugar sifted
  • food coloring (purple, orange, and red or pink)

Instructions

  • Cream the butter and sugar well.
  • Add the flour and mix until a dough forms.
  • Bring the dough together on a flour dusted counter, then begin to roll it out.
  • Roll out to about 1/4" thick.
  • Using the Party Rings cutter, cut the pastry.
  • Use the inner cutter for the center hole of each biscuit, then place on a silicone lined baking tray.
  • Bake in a 350º F ( 175º C) oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely on a rack.
  • Make the icing using the confectioner's sugar and just enough water to make a runny consistency. If a biscuit is dipped into the icing, a little will drip off, but won't all run off.
  • Divide the icing into four bowls. Leave one white, color the other three: pale purple, light pink and pale orange.
  • Dip some of the homemade party rings biscuits and place back on the rack. Before the icing sets, take another color of icing and pull lines across the top from a teaspoon or knife.
  • Next, take a skewer or toothpick and make lines across the icing lines you just made. Allow to dry completely.
  • Repeat with the rest of the homemade party rings biscuits with the other colors.

Notes

  • You can skip the extra stripe decoration if you want a less time-consuming treat.
