60g butter
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg yolk
1 cup self raising flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoon sour cream
CITRUS ICING
1 cup icing sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange juice
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
Cream together butter, sugar and vanilla. Add egg yolk and beat well.
Sift together flour, soda, salt and nutmeg. Fold in half the dry ingredients to butter mixture, fold in remaining dry ingredients and sour cream. Mix until well combined. With floured hand roll teaspoonfuls of mixture into small balls. Place on lightly greased oven trays. Press tops lightly with a fork. Bake in hot oven 8 – 10 minutes or until pale golden. Cool slightly on trays, then cool on wire racks. Dip tops of biscuits in Citrus Icing.
CITRUS ICING:
Combine sifted icing sugar, strained juices and orange rind. Place in a cup in a saucepan of hot water, beat with a fork until glossy. Put into a saucer to make icing of biscuits easier.
