Sweet Little Elephant Biscuits

My youngest just got back from a sleepover, and because it is just me and him today, I decided we should do something together. I was given the Primrose Hill Bakery cookbook for my birthday and was enchanted by the bourbon dachshund biscuits they make. Obviously I don't have anything as refined as a sausage dog cutter, but I do have an elephant cutter.

The Best

And the rest!

Eat me!

Here is the recipe (it was originally a Nigella one, but Primrose Bakery have adapted it, and I have summarised it!):

If you want Nigella's version it is the Butter Cut Out Biscuits in "How to be a Domestic Goddess" or Primrose Hill Bakery's version is Iced Biscuits in "The Primrose Bakery Book"
