Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line two large baking sheets with baking parchment.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the softened butter. Stir in the orange zest and caster sugar.
• Add the egg yolks and mix with your hands. Knead for about 3 minutes until you have a soft dough.
• Dust your work surface with a little icing sugar. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 3mm. Use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Re-roll the offcuts to make more biscuits until the dough is used up.
• Place the shapes on your prepared sheets, leaving about 1cm between them. Bake for 12–15 minutes until they are just golden but not brown.
• Let them sit on the tray for a minute, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• While the biscuits cool, whisk the icing sugar, orange juice, and zest in a small bowl until smooth and glossy. Spread or drizzle the icing over the cooled biscuits and add your sprinkles.
