MANGO DELIGHTS

INGREDIENTS:

1 2/3 cup Plain flour

1/3 cup Castor sugar

125 gms. Butter

1/3 cup Almonds (roasted and ground)

2 tablespoon Water

Sugar

For Filling:

2 tablespoon Mango jam

PROCEDURE :

Sift flour in a bowl. Mix almonds and sugar and rub in butter. Add enough water to make ingredients cling together. Turn to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Take two sheets of grease-proof paper and roll dough between these until 4 mm thick. Using a round cutter, cut equal number of 4 cm and 5 cm rounds. Mix ingredients of filling and keep aside. Put some filling on the smaller round of dough and cover with the bigger one and press the edges together.

Place biscuits about 2 cm apart on oven tray and bake at 200°C for 20 minutes. Cool and dust with icing sugar.
