Preparation
1. Sift the flour onto the work surface and knead in the cold butter cut into pieces. Add the remaining ingredients and swiftly knead into a smooth dough.
2. Wrap the dough in cling film and let it rest in the fridge for one hour.
3. On a floured work surface, roll out the dough. Cut out biscuits using a round pastry cutter (3cm diameter).
4. Cut the centres out of half the biscuits using a smaller round pastry cutter. Place biscuits on a baking tray and put into the preheated oven.
5. Spread apricot jam onto the full biscuit, place the cut-out biscuit on top and sprinkle with icing sugar.
Bake: 175°C top and bottom heat or 160°C convection
