This is the superior yo-yo recipe. I’ve tried others but these are firm enough not to spread in the oven (with putting them in the fridge first) bit still melt in your mouth. Probably easy to vegan-ise too.

This recipe mentions vanilla essence but doesn't even say in the method when you you are supposed to add the essence in. CHELSEA: Thanks for pointing that out, we're sorry! We have amended the recipe now.

Method

Preheat oven to 180°C bake and line two oven trays with baking paper.

Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla essence. Sift in flour and custard powder and mix with a spoon or spatula to combine.

Roll heaped teaspoons of mixture into balls and place on prepared trays. Flatten slightly.

Bake for 15 minutes or until biscuits are a pale golden colour. Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Filling

Beat all ingredients together until well combined and smooth. Add a dash of milk if mixture is too thick. Spread onto the base of half the biscuits, then sandwich together with remaining biscuits.
