I thought it would be a bit of fun for the kids to put a little spin on melting moments and create these yummy and easy-to-make fairy bread melting moment biscuits. My kids love them, and they look pretty cute too!
These biscuits are super easy to make using just 7 ingredients, and they taste amazing. I like to add some pink food colouring to the icing, but you could leave it out and just use the sprinkles.
Ingredients
Biscuits
- plain flour
- custard powder
- butter
- icing sugar
- 100s & 1000s sprinkles
Icing

See the recipe card below for quantities.
Instructions
Step 1
Using an electric mixer, cream together butter and the icing sugar until light and pale.
Step 2
Add sifted flour and custard powder into the butter mixture and mix with the electric mixer until combined.
Step 3
Add in the sprinkles and mix.
Step 4
Roll into teaspoon-sized balls and arrange on the tray, allowing space to spread slightly. Press down on each of the biscuits lightly with a fork dipped in flour.
Step 5
Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
Step 6
Using an electric mixer, cream the icing sugar, butter, custard powder and food colouring.
Step 7
Add in the sprinkles and mix.
Step 8
Add filling to one side of the cooled biscuits and sandwich them together.
Top Tip
Make sure you keep them teaspoon-sized, or they will be on the larger side.
Storage
- Store biscuits in an airtight container: This helps to keep moisture out and maintain the crispness of the biscuits for up to 7 days.
- Layer with baking paper: To prevent the biscuits from sticking together or crumbling during storage, you can place a layer of paper between each layer of biscuits.

I made this with GF flour and custard powder and used nuttelex to make it more LF.

Amazing, such a simple recipe that tastes delicious! I made and froze the cookie dough a few days before needed to save myself some time. It came out great when defrosting and the cookies are delicious! Will be a big hit at school shared lunch

My girl loves these in her lunchbox ❤️ They are so yummy and cute!
But did you mean to write tbsp sized balls not tsp? I did tsp with the first lot and they burnt because they were so small, a tbsp size works perfectly for us 👍

I hag to make multiple batches as the 12 min cooking time was just too long. But I got it right with 8 mins. Delicious and devoured within mins of putting down.
