Marmalade Cookies

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Grease and line 2 large baking trays with greaseproof paper.

2

Sieve the flour into a bowl and stir in the ground almonds and sugar. Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.

3

Add the egg and marmalade and bring the mixture together to form a soft dough. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.

4

Divide the mixture into 16 pieces, and gently roll each piece into a ball. Place on the baking trays and press down to form rounds approx. 5cm (2 inch) in diameter.

5

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden. Allow to cool on the baking trays, then transfer to a wire rack.

6

Melt the Chocolate Chips according to the pack instructions. Smooth 1 teaspoon of melted Chocolate over the top of each cookie and put back on the wire rack. Leave in a cool place until set, then pipe your message in Writing Icing on each cookie.
