Lego Cookies

Build yourself a great kids party with these bright and fun Lego Cookies! So much fun to make … and eat!

Ingredients (makes 40 Lego pieces)

175g Plain flour
100g Chilled butter, chopped
85g Icing sugar
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 Egg yolk
Assorted M&M minis
FOR THE ICING
3/4 cup Icing sugar
Food colouring
Water

Method

Put the flour, butter, sugar, vanilla and egg yolk in a food processor. Dribble in 1 TBS water, and blitz until the mix comes together to form a dough.
Place onto a work surface, and knead briefly to bring together, then wrap in cling wrap, and chill for 20 minutes.
Once chilled, roll out onto a floured surface, and using a sharp knife, cut out rectangles to represent the Lego.
Place onto a baking paper lined tray, and cook in a moderate oven for approximately 12 minutes. These cookies will still look quite pale when they are done - don't overcook or they will be dry and crunchy. Allow to cool on a wire rack
To make the icing, mix a very small amount of water bit by bit to the icing sugar until a smooth thick paste (icing) has been made. Divide into smaller bowls and using the food colour, make each one a different colour
When cookies are cooled, spread a layer of icing on top and using the M&M minis, place onto the cookies to make them look like Lego.
Allow to dry for an hour or more before serving

Notes

Depending on how large you cut your pieces will depend on how many Lego cookies you will end up with. Store in an air tight container for up to a week.

Such a simple idea, wish I had thought of it myself lol.

These are a cute idea. Could change them to dominoes for kids to also play with them which might be fun.
