Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Beechworth Honey Traditional Honey
  • 75 g butter
  • 1 1/2 cups plain flour
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp mixed spice
  • 1/2 tsp bicarb soda
  • 1 1/2 tbsps milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 cups icing sugar
  • Pink food colouring

Instructions

  • Sift dry ingredients into a bowl.
  • Melt butter and honey in a saucepan over low heat until butter is melted and mixture is smooth. Do not boil.
  • Add the honey and butter mixture to dry ingredients along with the milk. Stir until combined. Chill in fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 170 degrees (fan-forced) and line two baking trays with baking paper.
  • Once chilled, separate the mixture into 4 equal portions and roll each into a smooth ball. Roll each ball into a long sausage shape. Cut each into four lengths. Form each piece into an oval-shaped ball and flatten slightly. Place each length onto the baking tray. Bake for 12 minutes.
  • Leave the biscuits on the tray for 5 minutes to cool and then transfer to a wire cooling rack.
Icing
  • Beat egg whites on medium-low speed until frothy, about 1 minute. Gradually add the icing sugar, stirring until the mixture is smooth.
  • Spread or dip half of the biscuits in the white icing and place aside to set. Tint the remaining mixture with a few drops of pink food colouring, then spread or drip the remaining biscuits.
  • Leave the biscuits to set for 30 minutes, or until the icing is firm.
