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.
