    I've made these twice now. First time was better but the second time it was hard to roll them without them cracking a bit. Maybe I need to reduce the amount of flour?   Some of the changes I made include. Mixing in the eggs for 2.5 mins and event that seemed like ages. Adding 2 teaspoons of baking powder as 15g sounds like heaps! 

    These taste really nice and sweet though, despite being a little harder to roll so turned them mainly into shorbread cookies.
