Viennese jammy whirls

These are the most delicious, mouth watering, buttery biscuits I’ve ever tasted.

The smell is so amazing as they bake and really don’t take long at all. I wouldn’t dream of buying them. Once cooked, store in a airtight tin, but be warned…they won’t be there long.

Total Time 25 minutes
Course Biscuits
Servings 15 biscuits

Ingredients
  

  • 175 g margarine
  • 50 g icing sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla essence
  • 175 g plain flour
  • seedless jam – raspberry or strawberry work very well

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 170c/325f / Gas 3. Take 2 baking trays and line with baking paper.
  • Place the margarine in a bowl and sift in the icing sugar.  Add the vanilla essence and beat mixture until light and fluffy. Sift in the flour, mixing gently until well combined.
  • Spoon the mixture into a large piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle.  Pipe rings on a baking sheet.  Space out, leaving room for the biscuits to expand during cooking.  Place a small dollop of jam in the centre of each biscuit.
  • Bake for 20-25 mins, or until biscuits are pale and golden brown.  Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
