Panda Cookies

As the new series of Great British Bake Off starts tomorrow (yay!) I thought I would do a little bit of baking so I decided to make these incredibly kawaii panda cookies. I bought the cookie cutters at Hyper Japan from the Tofu Cute stall and you can buy them here if you're interested in giving them a go yourself. They were super easy to make and only took 10 minutes in the oven, here's the recipe I followed...

Ingredients

♥ 60g butter

♥ 60g sugar

♥ 155g flour

♥ 5g coco powder

♥ 1 egg

Method

♥ Mix butter and sugar in a bowl until smooth

♥ Add 1 beaten egg

♥ Separate mixture into 2 bowls 

♥ To one half add 80g of flour and mix

♥ To the other half add 75g of flour and 5g coco powder and mix

♥ Once mixed to form a dough wrap each portion in cling film and put in the fridge for half an hour

♥ After half an hour take the dough out of the fridge and roll out using a rolling pin

♥ Carefully cut the shapes out and assemble on a a tray covered in grease proof paper
