Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 220 g Butter, Softened ((1 Cup))
  • 1/2 Cup Caster Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 and 1/3 Cups Gluten Free Flour
  • 1 and 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 Cup Custard Powder
  • 60 g Butter, Softened ((1/4 Cup))
  • 1/4 Cup Custard Powder
  • 1 and 1/2 Cups Icing Sugar
  • 2-4 Tbsp. Water, (as needed)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • Cream the butter and caster sugar together until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the egg.
  • Beat in the gluten free flour, baking powder and custard powder until you have a stiff dough.
  • Shape into balls and flatten with a fork or roll into a log and slice off into 4cm pieces.
  • Place in the oven for 12-15 minutes. They will have spread and lightly golden around the edges.
  • Allow them to cool completely.
  • While the cookies are cooling make the custard buttercream.
  • Beat the butter until smooth. Slowly add in the icing sugar and custard powder.
  • If the mixture won't come together, add in some water a tablespoon at a time until you have a thick consistency that will hold its shape.
  • Pair up the cookies (pair the cookies with ones of relatively the same size).
  • Spread or pipe the buttercream onto one of the cookies in each pair.
  • Press the other cookie on top and you're finished!
