ALSO YOU WILL REQUIRE
Rabbit-shaped biscuit cuter
2 Baking trays; greased
Paint brush

Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and soft, then beat in
the egg and orange rind. Sift in the flour and mixed spice, then mix
in the currants. Mix well to make a pliable dough, knead quickly then
roll out on a lightly floured surface to just under 1cm (1/4 inch)
thick. Cut out shapes with the cutter, rolling the dough trimmings
again in between. Arrange the biscuits on the prepared trays and bake
carefully in a moderate oven (180C / 350F / Gas Mark 4) for 10
minutes only.

Brush the biscuits with milk, then return them to the oven for a
further 10 minutes until crisp and nicely coloured. Be careful that
the edges are not too brown. Lift off and cool.

Melt the chocolate in a small bowl. With the paint brush, brush all
the ears, then the paws of the bunny biscuits with chocolate. Dab a
little on the tails and stick on a Button.

Cook’s tip: To get a particularly shiny, golden finish, add an egg
yolk to the milk when brushing over the biscuits.
