Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
Step 2
Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugar in a bowl until pale and creamy. Add the egg and beat until just combined. Add the flour and stir to combine. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 15 mins or until firm.
Step 3
Meanwhile, carefully remove the lollipops from the sticks. Place the red and green lollies in separate plastic bags. Use a rolling pin to finely crush.
Step 4
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a 3mm-thick disc. Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into triangle shapes to resemble trees. Use small round cutters to cut discs from inside of the trees. Place on the lined trays.
Step 5
Bake for 7-8 mins or until lightly golden. Use a spoon to fill each hole with a little of the crushed lollies. Bake for a further 2 mins or until the crushed lollies melt and the biscuit is golden. Set aside on the trays to cool completely.
