Step by step recipe

• 1: Beat together the yolks of 3 eggs with 140 g caster sugar until the mixture foams and turns white.
• 2: Add the egg whites a little at a time...
• 3: ...allowing the mixture to "foam" each time before adding more.
• 4: At the end, add the red colouring.
• 5: Sieve 125 g flour onto the mixture and fold in gently with a soft spatula. Lean the bowl over on its side to do this more easily.
• 6: Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C).
  Reims biscuits are normally rectangular, but you can use whatever shape moulds or tins you have available.
  Fill the moulds 3/4 full.
• 7: Dust with icing sugar and bake for about 20 minutes.
• 8: Turn out when cold.
