Time 45m

Yield Serves 14

100g butter, chilled
75g caster sugar
175g plain flour
1tsp cinnamon
1/2tsp nutmeg
1/2tsp mixed spice
Orange food colouring
Whole cloves
2tsp milk (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 160degrees/140fan Grease a large baking sheet
  • Mix together the flour, sugar and spices Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs
  • Add a dollop of food colouring and knead the mixture until it forms a dough, add a little milk if needed. At this stage add more food colouring to reach your desired colour
  • Take a heaped teaspoon of dough and roll it into a ball, Mark vertical lines in the side of the ball to form a pumpkin shape, go quite deep to prevent the lines fading out while cooling.
  • Place a clove into the top of each ball and place it onto the tray. Continue until all the dough has been used up
  • Bake for around 35minutes or until the biscuits are firm and the bases have darkened, if baked too little they will be raw in the middle!
