Today is Penguin Awareness Day, so my bake today is dedicated to my best friend “Pemming”.
I have had Pemming since I was four months old and Father Christmas brought him for my Christmas present. It was love at first sight and we have been together ever since. He fits snuggly under my arm and I can take him anywhere (although due to several “unfortunate incidents” in the past he’s now strictly a house Penguin).
Pemming is always there for me, he always understands how I feel, and he makes me feel secure. He is my emotional support Penguin. Everyone should have one.
Recipe:
- Butter 6oz
- Caster Sugar 4oz
- Plain Flour 8oz
- Cocoa Powder 3oz
To decorate:
- Icing sugar
- Orange food colouring
- Writing icing
How to make:
Squish the butter and sugar together with a fork until they are creamy.
Mix the flour and cocoa powder together well, and then add it to the creamy butter mixture.
Stir it all together well, then use your hands to squash it all together to make a ball of yummy chocolatey dough.
You need to wrap up your dough and put it in the fridge for an hour.
Roll out your dough and cut out your penguins! 🐧
They need to bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes on 180 degrees.
Once they are cooled you can decorate them! 🙂
