Poppy seed and lemon biscuits

These delicate biscuits are perfect for serving with ice cream or sorbet. I find the best way to spread these onto a tray is to use a template made from an old ice cream or plastic container lid. Simply take your lid and cut out a rectangle about 15cm long, leaving a little extra thumb-sized piece at the end to hold while spreading. How cut out the centre of the rectangle about 1cm from the edge and you’ll be left with a great template for spreading these kinds of biscuit mixes.
