Home > Food > Life > TMC Family Recipe of the Week: Funfetti Heart Biscuits
Ingredients

220g unsalted butter, softened
200g caster sugar
1 large egg, beaten
2 tsp vanilla extract
400g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
100g dark chocolate
100g white chocolate
coloured strands, to decorate

Methods

1. Whisk the butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric whisk for 2 mins until creamy and smooth. Add the egg and whisk until combined.

2. Add the vanilla and flour and mix with a wooden spoon to form a smooth dough. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and chill for 10 mins.

3. Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 2mm thick. Cut out biscuits using a 6cm heart-shaped cookie cutter. Reroll the trimmings as necessary until the dough is used up. Place the biscuits on baking sheets lined with nonstick baking paper and bake for 12-15 mins until pale golden and turning crisp around the edges. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.

4. Melt the dark and white chocolate in separate heatproof bowls each set over a small pan of simmering water. Dip half the biscuits halfway into the dark chocolate and sprinkle the chocolate-coated side with coloured strands. Repeat with the remaining shortbread biscuits and white chocolate. Place on a wire rack to cool and set. The decorated biscuits will keep for a week in an airtight container.

*Tip

Freezing and defrosting guidelines (undecorated biscuits only)

In order to enjoy optimum flavour and quality, frozen items are best used within 3 months of their freezing date.
