Empire Biscuits

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.

Place the Fate Low Protein All-Purpose Mix, custard powder, sugar and margarine into a bowl.

Using a spatula, mix onto a dough and leave to rest for 5 minutes.

Roll out the dough onto a clean lightly dusted surface, using a rolling pin to a 1cm thickness.

Using the biscuit cutter, cut out 14 circles from the dough.

Place on a lined baking tray and bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until golden.

Remove from the oven and leave to fully cool on a wire rack.

For the icing, add the water and icing sugar to a bowl and mix until the icing is thick.

Spread 1 tsp of the jam onto half of the biscuits.

Spread 1 tsp of icing onto the other half of the biscuits.

Place an iced biscuit on top of each of the jam biscuits and top each empire biscuit with half of a glacé cherry.
