One Pot Citrus Yoyos
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.
