Ingredients

BISCUITS
100g butter
100g caster sugar
1 egg yolk
0.5 orange, grated rind and juice
200g Doves Farm Organic Plain White Flour
½ tsp mixed spice
50g Doves Farm Organic Fairtrade Plain Chocolate Chips
TOPPING
1 egg white
2 tbsp caster sugar

Line a baking tray with parchment and pre-heat the oven.
Put the butter and sugar into a mixing bowl and beat together until light and fluffy.
Add the egg yolk, grated orange rind and juice and beat well.
Sieve the flour and mixed spice into the bowl and stir to combine.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to the thickness of two pound coins.
Press a pastry cutter or cup through the dough to make 75mm/3” circles then gently lift them onto the prepared baking tray.
Gather together the off cuts and re-roll to make further biscuits.
Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Remove the baking tray from the oven and brush the biscuits with egg white.
Sprinkle caster sugar over the biscuits then return them to the oven for a further 2 minutes.
