INSTRUCTIONS
ALSO YOU WILL REQUIRE Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and soft, then beat in the egg and orange rind. Sift in the flour and mixed spice, then mix in the currants. Mix well to make a pliable dough, knead quickly then roll out on a lightly floured surface to just under 1cm (1/4 inch) thick. Cut out shapes with the cutter, rolling the dough trimmings again in between. Arrange the biscuits on the prepared trays and bake carefully in a moderate oven (180°C / 350°F / Gas Mark 4) for 10 minutes only. Brush the biscuits with milk, then return them to the oven for a further 10 minutes until crisp and nicely coloured. Be careful that the edges are not too brown. Lift off and cool. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl. With the paint brush, brush all the ears, then the paws of the bunny biscuits with chocolate. Dab a little on the tails and stick on a Button. Cook's tip: To get a particularly shiny, golden finish, add an egg yolk to the milk when brushing over the biscuits. Converted by MC_Buster. NOTES : Making these novelty biscuits will be a fun Easter holiday activity for the younger members of the family. Makes about 24. Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
