cover with another sheet of parchment paper (or cling film) and flatten with a rolling pin to 2-3mm height.
cut out 12 shapes.
smear butter on a pancake pan and place over high heat.
when the butter starts to sizzle, reduce heat to a minimum and add the biscuits.
after 2 minutes, flatten each biscuit with a spatula so they are of uniform height.

remove from heat and let biscuits cool down in the pan.
sprinkle icing sugar and serve.

Notes

Metric kitchen scales are an inexpensive yet invaluable gadget to ensure accurate measurement of ingredients. Store them upright in a cupboard or over your worktop and they'll only take up a tiny bit of space. Click HERE for the ones I use. For U.S. option click HERE.
