Try These Parmesan and Black Pepper Easter Biscuits!
INGREDIENTS
200 g plain flour
100 g salted butter
100 g finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg
1 egg yolk
salt
black peppercorns
ground black pepper
DIRECTIONS
Mix the flour and butter in a food processor until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add half the grated Parmesan, the eggs, a pinch of salt, ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Mix until it forms a dough. Leave to rest for an hour.
Preheat the oven to 190C/gas mark 5. Roll out on a floured surface to around ½ cm thick. Cut out the eggs and chicks shapes using cookie cutters.
Press in a whole peppercorn for the chicks’ eyes, and sprinkle the remaining parmesan on the chick shapes.
Place on a lightly greased baking tray and bake for around 10-12 minutes. Cool on a wire rack – they’re nice to eat when still a little warm.
