Method
- Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Take 1 biscuit and top the flat side with 1 tsp chocolate hazelnut spread, spreading to the edges, then put a second biscuit, flat-side down, on top to sandwich together. Repeat until all the biscuits are sandwiched together.
- Lightly whisk the egg whites, then add the icing sugar in 2-3 stages, whisking to incorporate before adding the rest. Stir in the glucose and lemon juice, then whisk for 1 min.
- Divide the mixture between 2 bowls and add enough green and red food colouring to each to make a vibrant colour. Use 2 forks to dip half the biscuits in the green icing and half in the red, then transfer to a tray lined with baking paper. Press 1 peanut butter cup onto the top of each biscuit, then scatter with the sprinkles and chocolate stars. Leave to set for 2 hrs or until hardened. Keep in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 3 days.
