My Rocky Horror Horror Picture Show Cookies
Makes approximately 18 cookies. You can buy dehydrated strawberry powder from quality supermarkets and specialist cake and baking suppliers.
Equipment
- Baking trays
- Silicon baking mats
Ingredients
For the cookies
- 200 gr Self-raising Flour
- 150 gr Golden Caster Sugar
- 50 gr Salted Jersey Butter softened
- 25 gr dehydrated Strawberry Powder
- 2 teaspoons quality Vanilla extract
- 1 large free-range Egg beaten
- A few drops Red Food Colouring
For Filling
- 100 gr Buttercream
- 60 gr Mini Marshmallows
Instructions
- Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl. Add the beaten egg, food colouring, and the vanilla extract and stir in. Sift the self-raising flour and strawberry powder into the bowl and mix together thoroughly.
- Spread onto some cling film and wrap tightly into a cylinder, inside a sheet of silver foil. Chill for at least two hours in the refrigerator.
- Preheat your oven to 375 F / 190 C / Gas Mark 5 and line two baking sheets with non-stick baking paper or silicon baking mats. Unwrap the cookie mix and slice into rounds into half a centimetre or the thickness of a pound coin. Space out on to the trays and place into the oven.
- Bake for around eight minutes, until they are firm on the edges and just slightly soft in the very centre if you press them. If you prefer a slightly firmer cookie leave in the oven for a couple of extra minutes.
- Remove from the oven and leave on the tray for a couple of minutes to set. Carefully cut in half and then lift onto a cooling rack. When cool sandwich two halves together with butter icing and fix in the marshmallow teeth.
