Red velvet melting moments

Step 1

Preheat oven to 160C.
Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and vanilla.
Next add the colouring and combine well.
Sift the remaining biscuit ingredients into the bowl and mix together into a dough.
Roll the dough into small balls (20g each) then put onto the baking tray.
Flatten the dough with a fork (dipped in flour each time)
Put the trays in the fridge for 15mins and then bake for 20mins.
Leave them to cool.
For the filling:
Beat the butter, icing sugar and vanilla in a large bowl.
Add the cream cheese and the lemon extract, and beat until smooth.

Put the filling in a piping bag, with a plain round nozzle and pipe onto half of the bicuits.
Then sandwich them together with another biscuit half.
