- Mix the dairy-free butter and icing sugar together in a large bowl.

- If the mixture is too stiff, add the dairy-free milk to help thin it out until you have a soft but firm mixture.
- Transfer to a piping bag with a large star nozzle.
- Pipe the mixture into small circular spirals, starting from the outside, working your way in.
- Bake for approx 12-15 mins until lightly golden.
- Leave to cool completely.
