Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • With the hand mixer, cream 1 cup Unsalted Butter and 2/3 cup Caster Sugar together in a mixing bowl.
  • Add 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1 egg and beat well.
  • Add 1 7/8 cups plain flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, and salt to taste and fold in.
  • Split this batter into 2 small bowls and color each one with a little food coloring (I made green and pink).
  • Put them in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the fridge and roll the dough and cut with leaf-shaped cutters or pipe with a leaf piping nozzle.
  • Bake on baking trays lined with baking paper for 20 mins and then cool completely.
  • Sandwich together with tempered chocolate, leave to set, and enjoy!
