Not long until Easter- Easter biscuits recipe

Easter biscuits have been made in Europe for centuries.
In the days before we were swamped with chocolate every Easter, sweet biscuits and cookies were an Easter treat at the end of Lent.
My Traditional Easter biscuits recipe comes from England. This biscuit is a thin shortcrust, with currants and dried fruit in the mixture, sprinkled with sugar. You can add a little spice if you like.
These traditional Easter biscuits make pretty gift too. Wrap them in cellophane, tie them with ribbon, and give them as a very welcome Easter gift.

This cellophane bag with a firm base is the luxury way to present your Easter Biscuits as a gift.
