Fantastic, melt-in-the-mouth biscuits! I always ask my grandma to bake them for me. You can layer the biscuits with your favourite jam or dulce de leche. So easy and delicious!

- Preheat the oven to 200 C / Gas 6. Grease or line a baking tray with parchment.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, margarine, baking powder, egg yolks and sugar. Mix in soured cream 1 tablespoon at a time so as the dough is firm but not sticky. Knead quickly.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut shapes with 6cm biscuit cutter (remember there must be pairs!). Place onto the prepared baking tray.
- Bake for 15 minutes until golden. Watch out because they brown quickly! Cool on a wire rack.
- Spread thin layer of jam on half of the biscuits and cover with the other half. Set aside for an hour so they will stick together.
