Here's my weekly food inspiration. Oh! so gorgeous White Chocolate and Orange Butter Biscuits
When a baking recipe relies heavily upon butter for its flavour, use the finest butter you can as you will taste the difference.
Also, butter biscuits and shortbread will taste better if you can leave them in a cool place, in an airtight container for two to three days before enjoying; it allows butter's heavenly flavours to work their magic.
