Sugar biscuits with pistachio and dried cherries

1) Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Open the sugar cookie log and press into a rectangle on cutting board.

2) Add the pistachios and cherries, press into the dough and then re-shape into a log. Slice into 0.5cm thick rounds and transfer the slices to a lightly greased baking sheet.

3) Bake in centre of the oven for 7 to 11 minutes, until golden around the edges. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

4) While the biscuits are baking, melt the white chocolate chips in a double boiler or a bowl over simmering water.

5) When the biscuits are cool, dip half of each into the melted white chocolate and place on waxed or greaseproof paper to cool.
