You will also need...
2 baking sheets, lined with baking parchment and 20 lolly sticks
Step 1 of 4
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C for fan ovens), Gas Mark 4.
Step 2 of 4
Beat the buttery spread, sugar and condensed milk together until creamy. Add the egg (don’t worry if it looks like its curdling), beat well and then add the flours, spice and lemon zest. Mix to a firm but sticky dough. Cover in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 3 of 4
Roll the dough out on a well- floured surface to the thickness of a pound coin. Cut out using a 6cm round cutter. Transfer the biscuit shapes to the trays and insert the lolly sticks into the sides, just a quarter of the way through. Re-roll the trimmings to make more biscuits.
Step 4 of 4
Bake for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack. Mix the icing sugar with the condensed milk, yellow colouring and a little water. Ice and decorate the biscuits with the sweets and use the black icing pen to draw the eyes, then leave to dry. Store in an airtight box for up to a week
