EASY 7-UP® BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Put butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and place dish in the preheating oven until butter is melted.
• Mix baking mix, lemon-lime soda, and sour cream together in a bowl until dough holds together and is sticky. Turn dough onto a floured work surface and roll into 1-inch thick circle. Cut circles out of dough using a cookie cutter or the rim of a wine glass and place in the melted butter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove dish from oven and let stand until biscuits have absorbed all the butter.

SPRING LIME TEA COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine the 2 teaspoons of lime juice with the milk, let stand for 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 3/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then stir in the lime zest and milk mixture. Combine the flour, baking powder and baking soda, blend into the creamed mixture. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto the ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges are light brown. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
• To make the glaze, stir together the remaining lime juice and sugar. Brush onto cooled cookies.

EASY LEMON BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 190°c (170 fan/ 375F/ Gas 5) and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
• Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the egg, lemon zest (from 2 lemons) and the lemon juice from just 1 of the lemons.
• Stir in the flour and baking powder and mix to form a dough. If the mixture is a little dry add more lemon juice (from the second lemon) and mix and continue to do this until a smooth dough forms. Use your hands to bring the dough together in the bowl.
• Cover the bowl with clingfilm and chill the dough in the fridge for 15 minutes.
• Take tablespoons of the dough and roll into balls. Place on the baking sheet (you should get about 20 cookies). Flatten down slightly with the back of a spoon.
• Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Take out of the oven and flatten down again with the back of a spoon. These biscuits do not spread and are meant to be thick, round and bitesize.
• Once cool sift over the icing sugar and serve!
