For the peppermint creams first line a large baking tray with greaseproof paper. Then whisk the egg white until frothy and smooth NOT STIFF!!!

Afterthat sift the icing sugar in to the bowl containing the egg white the mix together. Knead in the peppermint essence (and the food colouring if needed)

Roll the mixture into balls then flatten with a fork (to around the size of a £2 coin) but if the fork sticks dip it in to icing sugar first!!! Then keep in the fridge for up to 24 hours before eating

Put the sweets into sealable bags, keeping each colour separate, and crush with a rolling pin until they break into little pebbles of sugar. Set aside for later.

Using a whisk, beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until pale and creamy. Sift in the flour, then add the cinnamon and the milk. Use your hands to mix everything together into a ball of dough.

Meanwhile, heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with non-stick baking paper.

Lightly flour a work surface then roll out half the dough to about 5 millimeters thick. Using the biscuit cutters, cut out shapes also use the smaller decorative cutters to stamp out shapes from the middle of each biscuits.

Carefully transfer the biscuits to the lined baking sheets, use a spatula. Repeat with the remaining dough, and re-roll the trimmings to make more biscuits.

Put one biggish pinch of the crushed sweet pebbles into the middle of each biscuit hole. Place in the oven and bake for about 15-18 minutes, until the biscuits are just golden and the sweets have melted and filled the cut out areas.

Leave to cool on the baking sheets until the sweets have set hard, then transfer to a wire rack before eating

Enjoy👍
