  Hmm, 2 egg yolks & 325g flour and 125 g sugar - my mixture did not form into a dough, so I ended up adding the egg whites in to bind the mixture...Also 200g icing sugar for 30 biscuits? The ratios really need refining in this recipe a little further...but they are yum!

  These are really nice and quick to make. I usually bake cakes, and this is my first try at biscuits but these are lovely and really crisp and crumbly. It does take a while to mix the cold butter into the flour and the dough is very short and crumbly and has to be patted together carefully but that must be what makes them so crisp and not doughy!
