2. Preheat oven to 170c. Roll dough out onto a piece of parchment paper and cut out the dough using a cookie cutter. Bake cookies for 10 to 12 mins. Allow cookies to cool completely.
3. Beat together filling cream ingredients. The mixture will seem very dry at first, but will eventually begin to clump together.

Then add in agar and whisk until agar is completely dissolved (about 2 mins) Stirring constantly. Whisk in Suncore Foods® Red Beet Powder. Let it simmer on low for 30 secs.
