Four Way Biscuits 

 Foundation Mixture Ingredients 

 • 125g butter 

 • ½ cup sugar 

 • 1 egg 

 • 2 cups SR flour 

I baked all of these biscuits at 180 degrees C for 12 minutes

 Coffee Creams 

 Add 1 tablespoon coffee essence and ½ teaspoon vanilla to creamed butter and sugar. Add beaten egg and flour. Bake until cooked, can join biscuits with icing. To make the coffee icing I mixed 1 cup of icing sugar, 1 tablespoon of coffee essence, 1 tablespoon of softened butter, and a dash of milk - just enough to mix to a spreadable consistency.  

 Monte Carlos 

 Add 1 tablespoon honey to creamed butter and sugar, add egg and flour. Bake, join with raspberry jam and lemon flavoured icing. Lemon icing - mix 1 cup of icing sugar with juice of half a lemon and a tablespoon of softened butter.  

 Orange Slices 

 Add grated rind of 1 orange to butter and sugar. Add egg, flour and 3 tablespoons orange juice. Bake, join with orange icing.

  Orange icing/glaze 

 • 1 ½ cups orange icing sugar • 2 teaspoons softened butter • Orange rind • 2 or 3 dessertspoons milk. Mix icing sugar, butter and rind together, and add milk to desired consistency. Rachael's alternative icing - mix 1 cup of icing sugar with 3.5 tablespoons of orange juice, rind of 1 orange  and 1 tablespoon of softened butter.
