Method - Cookies

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 180C (fan forced). Line two baking trays with non stick baking paper.

  2. 2

    Place the butter and sugar in a large bowl and beat with electric beaters until light and fluffy. Beat in the milk and Queen Vanilla Bean Paste.

  3. 3

    Add the sifted flour and custard powder and mix with a large metal spoon to form a soft dough.

  4. 4

    Roll teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and place on the baking trays, pressing slightly to flatten. Allow room for spreading. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes, then cool completely on a wire rack.

Method - Icing

  1. 1

    Meanwhile place the Dr. Oetker Royal Icing in a bowl and gradually stir in enough cold water to form a firm paste. Add the Strawb'rry & Cream Flavour for Icing and 1-2 drops Rose Pink Colouring. Stir until the colouring is evenly mixed through the icing. If too much water is added to Royal Icing mixture and it is runnier than a firm paste, just stir in a little sifted icing sugar.

  2. 2

    When the cookies are cooled, take pairs and sandwich together with the pink icing mixture.
