BAKING CAN BE CREATIVE TOO




Decided to swap the Sewing Machine for the mixer today! 
Just finished another batch of Yo Yo's for the local community shop.  
This is the best recipe ever - but don't be thinking of those calories! ...

YO YOS 
250gms Butter
125gms Custard Powder
90gms Icing Sugar
250gms Self Raising Flour
(Icing - Lemon juice & Icing sugar )
Mix all ingredients together until it forms a smooth dough.  Roll into round balls* place on biscuits tray lined with baking paper. Press gently with fork and bake in moderate oven until just turning golden. (*Walnut sized for average biscuits, or marble sized for bite-sized biscuits)
When cool, put together with a thick icing made from icing sugar and lemon juice.  
Roll in 100's n 1000's if desired. Enjoy!

Package them up with cellophane and ribbon and pop in a little gift basket with some other goodies for a great gift.  (My little Fabric Baskets would be just perfect, if you wanted to check out my photos!)

Half the enjoyment of eating, is it's presentation...
Found some great edible gift ideas on Madeit ....
