STEP 1
Put the butter, egg yolk, vanilla extract, and icing sugar in a mixing bowl and mix with a wooden spoon. Make a hard dough by mixing in the flour. Two flat discs of dough should be formed, then wrapped. For 20–30 minutes, chill. Set two baking sheets with non-stick baking paper in the oven and preheat it to 190°C/fan 170°/gas 5.
STEP 2
On a surface that has been lightly dusted with flour, roll out the dough to a thickness of about two £1 coins. Use a cutter if you'd like to cut out festive shapes and arrange them on the baking sheets. Make a little hole in the top of each cookie using the skewer's point. Bake until gently browned, about 10 to 12 minutes.
STEP 3
Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool. Make a thick but still runny icing by combining the icing sugar with a few drops of cold water in the meantime. If you'd like, colour using edible food coloring. When dry, spread it over the chilled biscuits, add edible balls for decoration, and thread with ribbon.
