• 2 tbsp Instant Coffee

Instructions

METHOD:

1. 1. Lightly grease 2 - 3 baking trays.
2. 2. With an electric mixer or wooden spoon beat the Butter or Margarine until soft. Beat in Caster Sugar.
3. 3. Add the Flour and Coffee and mix by hand to form an evenly blended dough. Wrap in plastic bag and refrigerate at least 1 Hour.
4. 4. Lightly sprinkle the work surface with Icing Sugar. Knead the dough on the sugared surface for a few minutes to soften in slightly.
5. 5. Using a rolling pin dusted with Icing Sugar roll out the dough to 3cm thickness. With 6 cm fluted pastry cutter cut out 16 rounds. Transfer rounds to the prepared baking trays. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

7. 7. Remove Ice Cream from the freezer and let soften for 10 minutes at room temperature.
8. 8. With a metal spatula spread the Ice cream evenly on the flat side of eight of the Biscuits, leaving the edges clear. Top with remaining biscuits flat-side down.
