3. Add the egg, stirring until a dough comes together. Knead gently till smooth. Place onto a lightly floured work surface and roll to the thickness of about 5mm.
4. use your favourite cutters, then lift the biscuits carefully with a palette knife and place, spacing them evenly, on baking sheets lined with baking parchment. Make a hole in the top of each biscuit with a chopstick.
5. Bake for 10–12 minutes till golden. Push the chopstick back into each of the holes while the biscuits are still soft. Leave to cool for 2 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack. When cool, you can decorate the biscuits and thread with ribbon to hang on the tree.
