you could just use an extra 1/2 cup of flour, but then they will not be the same as the recipe, so you will have to call them raewyn biscuits. also perhaps a little more sugar.

raewyn64, I suggest that you use cornflour - that, after all, is basically what custard powder is (+ colouring and flavouring). :-))

I find cornflour and custard powder pretty much interchangeable. A bright yoked egg or even a wee bit of yellow colouring might help the look of the biscuits and flavouring like vanilla too,

Yes, cornflour works beautifully. .
My Pavlova recipe has a couple of teaspoons of cornflour included - I sometimes have substituted custard powder for a hint of colour in the pavlova. .
