So, I made another batch of cookies (recipe #42). This comes from a standard cookie recipe involving equal amounts of flour, sugar, butter, some vanilla essence and an egg.

I learned one very important lesson doing this: Biscuits EXPAND. And get stuck together. So I'll use 2 oven trays next time, I think!

This recipe is one with which you can use cookie cutters, so I made them in the shape of cars and dragonflies (those are the only two I have) :-)

Does anyone know a good icing recipe for biscuits? I remember back when I was a kid you'd have those stalls at fetes where you could decorate teddybear biscuits. The cars would look great with smarties for wheels! And if anyone knows where I can get icing that can be used for writing/drawing with, that'd be really good for the dragonflies and for more interesting designs :-)
