This was a good recipe to make with my 7 year old. I helped by providing extra muscle as the dough must be creamed properly. Well worth the effort.

These were really nice! I did have to add a bit more butter than in the recipe though, as the mix was very crumbly.

Very good recipe, we enjoyed it but it would have been better if it was a slightly less floury. I did flatten gently as per the instructions, but I do feel these cookies could benefit from being flattened even more than you suggest, as texturally, they don't work that well when they are that thick. Very nice subtle flavor of the custard powder and goes quite well with my coffee. Ps. These tasted so much better the next day for some reason, we really enjoyed it, and it's worth 4, not 3 stars, so I am changing my review.

These are great! Easy to make, though used orange flower water as had no vanilla essence - and ran out of icing sugar so no filling. Still, twice as many to make up for it! Will definately make these again - thank you!
