One pot Citrus Yoyo's...

Yoyo's = YUM!

These are just like Grandma used to bake, made with the custard taste.

But with the added flavour of zesty ORANGE...

One Pot mix  = EASY!

The butter is melted not creamed with the sugar as traditionally prepared.

You simply mix the ingredients in one pot, 

shape into small balls,

press with a fork and bake.

The yield is 54 single Yoyo biscuits.

You can serve them with a sprinkling of extra icing (powdered) sugar if you prefer.

OR

27 joined with the tangy orange icing.

I prefer them joined with icing.

So delectably good.

Yoyo's and orchids = LOVE!
