First things first, line 2 large baking trays with baking parchment and set aside. Cream together the butter, sugar and Vanilla Extract until a smooth mixture is formed. Add the flour and mix to form a biscuit dough, if the dough is too crumbly add 1-2 tsp of milk to help bring the dough together.

Once the dough is formed, roll out to a thickness of approx. ½ cm on a surface lightly dusted with flour. Using your cutters (we used circles and crowns), cut out your dough, rerolling as necessary. Place your biscuits onto your prepared baking tray spaced slightly apart. Pop in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes – this helps the biscuits retain their shape when baked.

10 minutes before the biscuits are ready to bake pre-heat your oven to 180°C/ 160°C fan/ Gas Mark 4. Place your biscuits in the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes, until they are golden brown in colour. Remove the biscuits from the oven and leave to cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once your biscuits have cooled, it’s time to decorate! Use the Decorating Icings and Sprinkles to decorate your biscuits creating various designs. Your beautiful royal coronation biscuits are new ready to serve!
