Clare Latimer's recipe for
Funny Bunny Biscuits

Funny Bunny Biscuits
Kids love to make these and especially with the marshmallow tails.
They can be kept in an air tight tin for at least a week but I am sure they will all be gobbled up over Easter.

Ingredients
125g butter;
175g plain flour;
50g light muscovado sugar;
1/2 teasp ground cinnamon;
Grated rind of one lemon;
Yolk of one egg;
Two-three tbsp water;
One packet baby marshmallows;
Few currants.

Method
Preheat the oven 180°C 350°F Gas mark 4. Cut up the butter and then put into a mixing bowl with the flour, sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon rind and egg yolk.
Mix well and then add enough water to make a soft dough.
Remove from the bowl and knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and then roll out a 1/4 inch thick.
Cut out the biscuits with a rabbit cutter or make a template and cut out biscuits with a knife.
Carefully put them on a lined baking tray and cook for 10-15 minutes or until light brown.
While still warm poke a currant into each bunny to give it an eye.
Cool on the greaseproof paper and then move onto a plate.
When cold put a small marshmallow on the bottom of each bunny as a tail and stick it with either some icing mix or some butter.
