Tagette flowers are similar to marigolds, with a peppery aroma and flavour. Add them to cakes, desserts or biscuits, such as these shortbread cookies. These are very simple to make, and will definitely go down a storm!

Ingredients
- 240g plain flour
180g salted butter
- 70g caster sugar, plus extra for sprinkling
20g tagette flowers, petals picked
Directions
Stage 1, Preheat the oven to 170C.
Stage 2, Beat the butter and sugar together until smooth.
Stage 3, Stir in the flour and tagette petals.
Stage 4, Roll out gently to 1cm thickness, then cut shapes using a cookie cutter. Sprinkle with caster sugar and chill for 20 minutes.
Stage 5, Bake for 25-30 mins until pale golden, taking care not to over bake them, as they will turn bitter. Allow to cool before serving.
