This recipe makes 20 sandwich biscuits

Ingredients:

For the Biscuits:

115g Unsalted Butter
100g Caster Sugar
1 tsp Salt
1 Egg
1 tsp Black Gel Colouring
90g Plain Flour, sifted
45g Cookies & Cream Popcorn, crushed
75g Dark Cocoa Powder, sifted

For the cream filling:

100g Unsalted Butter
75g Icing Sugar, sifted
1 tsp Vanilla

Method:

Preheat the oven to 170C fan oven. Lightly grease a couple of baking trays and set aside.
In a medium sized bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the salt and mix.
Beat in the egg and food colouring.
Fold in the flour, crushed popcorn and cocoa powder.
Roll the dough between two sheets of baking parchment until it is 1cm thick. Using a small, circular cookie cutter, stamp out the cookies until all the dough has been used.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking trays and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool.
To make the filling, beat the butter in a bowl until smooth and pale in colour. Gradually, add in the icing sugar and carefully beat. Add the vanilla and mix until combined. You can always add more icing sugar or butter to create your desired consistency of buttercream.
To sandwich the biscuits together, place the buttercream into a piping bag fitted with a round nozzle, and pipe a blob of buttercream into the centre of one of the biscuits. Place another biscuit on top. Using your fingers, gently squeeze the biscuits together to ensure the buttercream can be seen.
Enjoy with a glass of cold milk.
