Method

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the butter and Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar in an electric mixer and beat for 8-10 minutes or until pale and creamy. Gradually add the eggs and vanilla, beating well after each addition.
Add lemon rind, flour, cinnamon, mixed spice, milk and sultanas and beat until a smooth dough forms. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm. Roll tablespoons of the dough into balls and place on lightly greased baking trays lined with non-stick baking paper. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until light golden. Allow to cool on trays.
To make the icing, place the Chelsea Icing Sugar and water in a bowl and mix until a paste forms. Place the mixture in a piping bag fitted with a 3mm plain nozzle and draw a cross on each cookie. Allow to dry on a wire rack. Makes 30.
