Step 2: Add the milk and dry ingredients and mix until a smooth dough forms. 
Step 3: Roll the dough to a thickness of around a £1 coin and use a cookie cutter to cut out 24 biscuits. 
Step 4: Place them evenly spaced on a baking tray and chill in the fridge whilst you preheat your oven to 150 degrees.

Step 6: Meanwhile use a hand mixer to beat the butter, sugar and jam together and then fold in your chopped strawberries. 
Step 7: Once the biscuits have cooled, pipe a circle of buttercream around the edge of the biscuit and add a dollop of jam to the centre, sandwich another biscuit on top.
