These delicious walnut-filled biscuits are the perfect accompaniment to a hot chocolate.
- Sift flour into a large bowl. Use your fingertips to rub butter into the flour until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add egg yolks and stir until a soft, sticky dough forms. Divide dough into 16 equal portions and roll into balls. Place on a baking tray and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to chill.
- To make the walnut filling, place the walnuts in the bowl of a food processor and process until finely chopped. Place in a bowl. Add the sugar, milk, butter and mixed spice, and stir to combine.
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Brush a baking tray with oil to lightly grease.
- Roll out a dough portion on a lightly floured surface to an 8 x 10cm rectangle. Repeat with remaining dough portions. Place a heaped teaspoonful of walnut mixture in the centre of each rectangle. Fold over edges to enclose filling. Press edges together to seal. Place pillows, seam-side down, on the prepared tray.
- Bake in oven for 20 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Dust with icing sugar and serve with hot chocolate.
